Summary:
The Martin Public Schools district in Michigan has only one elementary school, Robert D Brandon Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school has a predominantly white student population, with a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student body.
Academically, Robert D Brandon Elementary School performs above the state average in 3rd grade English Language Arts and Math, but struggles in higher grade levels, particularly in 5th grade Math and Social Studies. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is also high at 20.1%, which may be contributing to the academic challenges. Despite spending more per student than the state average, the school's overall rating has declined over the past three years, from 965 out of 1,344 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,124 out of 1,470 in 2022-2023, and 870 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024, with a current overall rating of 2 out of 5 stars.
The data suggests that the Martin Public Schools district may need to focus on addressing attendance issues, aligning curriculum and instructional practices, and providing targeted support for economically disadvantaged students to improve the academic performance of Robert D Brandon Elementary School. Addressing these areas could help the school reverse its declining ranking and better serve the needs of its student population.
