Summary

Main Street Elementary is a public elementary school in Troy, Missouri, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 399 students. The school is part of the Troy R-III School District, which is ranked 115 out of 367 districts in the state.

Main Street Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, ranging from 579th to 886th out of over 900 schools in recent years. The school has received a low 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other Missouri elementary schools. Student proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) are significantly lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 30.6% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 45.4% in the Troy R-III district and 41.8% statewide. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.2% to 28.2% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Nearby schools within the Troy R-III district, such as Hawk Point Elementary and Lincoln Elementary, generally outperform Main Street Elementary in terms of statewide rankings, student proficiency rates, and other key metrics. While Main Street Elementary's spending per student, ranging from $10,430 to $12,165 in recent years, is higher than the state average, it is lower than some of the nearby higher-performing schools within the district. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.6 to 11.8, suggests it may have sufficient resources in terms of staffing, but this has not translated into improved student outcomes.
