Additionally, La Grange Moscow Elementary has a chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9%, which may be a contributing factor to the low academic performance. The school's spending per student of $13,082 is relatively high, but it does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes, raising questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the need for targeted interventions and support. Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of La Grange Moscow Elementary, which is consistently underperforming compared to state and district averages, despite relatively high spending per student.
