Summary:
The city of Deckerville, Michigan is home to two schools - Deckerville Elementary School and Deckerville Community High School, both part of the Deckerville Community School District. Deckerville Elementary School stands out for its relatively high proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, particularly in the 3rd, 4th, and 6th grades, as well as strong 5th grade Science performance. However, the school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, an area for improvement. Deckerville Community High School impresses with its PSAT scores, where 8th graders exceed state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency, but lags behind in SAT performance and has a relatively high dropout rate.
Enrollment-wise, Deckerville Elementary School has 298 students, with a predominantly white student population, while Deckerville Community High School has 247 students and a slightly more diverse demographic. In terms of funding, Deckerville Elementary School spends $9,978 per student, while the high school spends $20,219 per student, a significant difference that may warrant further investigation to ensure equitable resource allocation across the district.
Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of the educational landscape in Deckerville, with both strengths and areas for improvement across the two schools. The strong academic performance at the elementary level and the college-readiness indicated by PSAT scores at the high school are positive signs, but the chronic absenteeism, lower SAT scores, and high dropout rate at the high school level suggest that the district has work to do to ensure all students are set up for success.
