Crossroads Elementary consistently ranks among the top 20% of Missouri elementary schools, with strong academic performance that exceeds state and district averages, particularly in English Language Arts. The school's 4th-grade proficiency rate in ELA reached 71% in 2024-2025, compared to 56.7% for the district and 44.8% for the state. Crossroads also excels in serving specific student subgroups, ranking 2nd out of 65 Missouri elementary schools for English Language Learners and 2nd out of 5 for Asian students in 2024-2025.

While Crossroads Elementary outperforms the nearby Green Tree Elementary and Prairie View Elementary schools, the nearby Discovery Ridge Elementary and Emge Elementary (part of the Fort Zumwalt School District) demonstrate even stronger academic performance. Crossroads Elementary's higher per-student spending of $12,848 in 2021-2022, compared to the district average of $11,494, may contribute to its success.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, July 20, 2011

The teachers, administrators, staff, PTA, and parents/families at this school are phenomenal. It nearly feels like a private school, with Smart Boards in every classroom (many purchased with PTA funds!) and suspended ceiling tiles painted by students. The facilities are great, as well. Voters narrowly approved a bond issue (4/3/2011) that will add 4 more classrooms to accommodate art, music, etc. that were displaced ("art on a cart") by full day kindergarten classes. This school emphasizes "character" with students daily, and the school motto is "Crossroads Elementary - Where Excellence is the Standard." The school mascot is the Corgi, a funny little cute breed that has traditionally been viewed as a "loyal" dog that "protects" the Queen of England. Close Quote
