Summary:
The Reading Community Schools district in Michigan has only one elementary school, Reynolds Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has a predominantly white student population, with 95.61% of students identifying as white. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is generally below the state average across various grade levels and subject areas.
Reynolds Elementary School has been ranked relatively low in the state, ranking 855 out of 1,486 elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year and receiving a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. The school's ranking has declined over the past few years, going from 976 out of 1,344 schools in 2021-2022 to 1,035 out of 1,470 schools in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 64.34% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a relatively low-income student population.
Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, at $12,931 for the 2022-2023 school year, the academic performance and declining ranking suggest that the school may be facing challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 17.4% in the 2022-2023 school year could also be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges and may require further investigation and targeted interventions.
