ELIAS MICHAEL ELEM. is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the ST. LOUIS CITY school district, located in ST LOUIS, MO with about 58 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, ELIAS MICHAEL ELEM. has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Elias Michael Elementary School is a specialized educational facility located in the St. Louis Public School District. Situated at 2 Gateway Drive in St. Louis, Missouri, the school is uniquely focused on serving students with significant physical disabilities and complex medical needs. Because of its specialized mission, the school provides a highly supportive environment that integrates rigorous academic instruction with essential therapeutic services, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, tailored to the individual requirements of each student.

The school is well-regarded for its adaptive approach to learning, ensuring that students who might face barriers in a traditional classroom setting have full access to a comprehensive curriculum. By maintaining a smaller, specialized setting with a high ratio of support staff, Elias Michael Elementary fosters a nurturing community where accessibility and inclusion are prioritized. The school plays a vital role in the district by bridging the gap between clinical care and classroom education, allowing students to develop their academic potential while receiving the medical and rehabilitative support necessary for their daily success.
