Elementary Schools in Flint School District of the City of

Summary:

The Flint School District of the City of Flint, Michigan, is home to 8 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools face significant challenges, including stark disparities in academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and potential inequities in resource allocation.

While the overall performance of the district schools is concerning, the data highlights a few standout institutions. Freeman School ranks the highest among the schools, outperforming the district and state averages in several academic areas, including 5th and 6th grade English Language Arts, 5th grade Math, and 5th grade Science. Eisenhower School is the second-highest ranked, excelling in 4th and 5th grade English Language Arts, while Pierce School stands out for its exceptional 5th grade performance in English Language Arts and Science.

However, the data also reveals significant challenges facing the Flint School District. Chronic absenteeism rates are alarmingly high, ranging from 64.9% to 83.0%, and the schools consistently underperform compared to state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency. Additionally, the variation in per-student spending, from $21,369 to $25,610, suggests potential inequities in resource allocation within the district. Addressing these systemic issues and learning from the successful practices of the standout schools will be crucial in improving the overall performance and equity of the Flint School District's elementary schools.
