Summary

Heritage Intermediate is a public elementary school in Wentzville, Missouri, serving 527 students in grades 3-5. It is part of the Wentzville R-IV School District, which is ranked 42 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Heritage Intermediate has some areas of strength, such as strong performance for African American students, the school's overall academic metrics lag behind the district and state averages. Student performance on Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests is generally lower than the Wentzville R-IV district and the state, with only 37.1% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 52% for the district and 41.4% for the state. Additionally, Heritage Intermediate has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.9% to 23.5% in recent years, which can negatively impact student learning.

Interestingly, nearby schools within the Wentzville R-IV district, such as Green Tree Elementary, Journey Elementary, and Peine Ridge Elementary, generally outperform Heritage Intermediate on academic measures. These schools also have lower chronic absenteeism rates and a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. By identifying and implementing best practices from these higher-performing schools, as well as addressing the factors contributing to chronic absenteeism, Heritage Intermediate can work towards improving its overall academic performance and student outcomes.

I have to disagree with the last reviewer. My children have attended Heritage for the past 4 years, and we too moved to Wentzville because of the schools. I must say, I have been nothing but pleased. The teachers are all loving and caring, and have gone out of their way many times for my children. There has been a change in leadership at the school since the date of the last review, so maybe it was an ineffective administration at the time. My kids love to get up and go to school everyday. That's the best vote of confidence a parent could have. Close Quote

My child has attended for 3 years now. We moved to the area because Wentzville has the best schools. Unfortunately, this is not one of them. They cheat to get the children to pass. My child loves to learn, but they refuse to teach him. He missed three days of school because he was running a fever, and didn't bring home any homework. Why? Because, they don't do anything. I've called the counselor on several occasions and she never returns my calls. The school is failing miserably. The state threatened to take over. They were given money from the state and had to give it to another school to prevent the take over. OUTRAGEOUS! Just because a couple big shots don't want to be embarrassed about how pathetic they run the place? In the meantime, we have uneducated children. Close Quote
