Summary:
The Huron School District in Michigan is home to three elementary schools serving students from early childhood through 5th grade. While the schools generally perform below state averages, Brown Elementary School stands out as the highest-ranked among the three, consistently maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and outperforming the district and state in 5th-grade English Language Arts and Math proficiency.
William D Miller Elementary School has also shown improvement, moving from a 2-star to a 3-star rating in the last two school years and performing better than the district and state averages in 5th-grade English Language Arts and Math. However, all three schools face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 27.9% to 42.7%, which may impact student learning and academic outcomes.
Demographically, the schools have a predominantly white student population, with minority representation relatively low. Additionally, a significant percentage of students, ranging from 36.16% to 42.71%, are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. While the schools' spending per student and student-teacher ratios are relatively low, the district and individual schools may need to explore strategies to address these equity concerns and ensure all students have access to quality education.
