Summary:
The Davison Community Schools district in Michigan is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance among these schools, with Hill Elementary School standing out as the top-performing school in the district and Thomson Elementary School lagging behind.
Hill Elementary consistently ranks among the top 100 elementary schools in Michigan, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its academic performance is particularly impressive, with significantly higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Thomson Elementary has the highest chronic absenteeism rate (31%) and the lowest test scores among the schools, raising concerns about the learning environment and student engagement.
The data also suggests a potential correlation between the percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and academic performance. Schools with higher rates of economically disadvantaged students, such as Siple Elementary and Thomson Elementary, tend to have lower proficiency rates. This highlights the importance of addressing socioeconomic factors and providing additional support to ensure equitable educational opportunities across the Davison Community Schools district.
