Best Public Schools in Grosse Pointe Woods, MI


Summary:

The city of Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan is home to 5 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Grosse Pointe Public Schools district. While the district is highly ranked, there are notable performance disparities between the schools, with Grosse Pointe North High School and Ferry Elementary School consistently outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests, while Stevens T. Mason Elementary School lags behind.

Socioeconomic factors appear to play a significant role, as the schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism rates. Additionally, the schools with more diverse student populations, such as Grosse Pointe North High School and Parcells Middle School, have lower test scores compared to the less diverse schools, suggesting the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to these performance differences.

Interestingly, the school with the highest spending per student, Stevens T. Mason Elementary School, has the lowest performance on standardized tests, indicating that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes. Overall, the data highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the factors that contribute to student success, particularly in addressing performance disparities and the impact of socioeconomic and demographic factors.
