Summary

Marthasville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 199 students in grades K-6 in Marthasville, Missouri, which is part of the Washington School District. While the district is ranked 78 out of 367 in the state and has a 4-star rating, Marthasville Elementary faces several challenges that have contributed to its declining performance over time.

One key issue is the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, which have ranged from 16.0% to 19.7% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Labadie Elementary (16.0%) and Campbellton Elementary (16.0%). Additionally, Marthasville Elementary's test scores on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) are generally lower than the state and district averages, with only 27.3% of 4th graders proficient or better in math, compared to 46.6% in the Washington district and 43.8% statewide.

Another factor that may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance is its relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 32.51% to 39.2% in recent years, which is higher than the rates at nearby schools like Labadie Elementary (14.29%) and Campbellton Elementary (10.66%). Despite spending more per student ($12,917 in 2021-2022) compared to the state average, Marthasville Elementary's statewide ranking has dropped from 189 out of 865 schools in 2015-2016 to 437 out of 900 schools in 2024-2025, indicating a decline in performance relative to other Missouri elementary schools.
