Summary:
The River Valley School District in Michigan has only one elementary school, River Valley Elementary School, which serves students from grades K-5. The school has a relatively small student population of 96 students, with a predominantly White student body (88.54%) and smaller percentages of other racial/ethnic groups.
Academically, River Valley Elementary School performs well above the state average in 3rd-grade English Language Arts and Math, as well as 5th-grade Science and Social Studies. However, the school's 4th and 5th-grade Math proficiency rates are lower than the state average, indicating an area for improvement. The school's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past three years, ranging from 602 out of 1,486 schools in 2023-2024 to 791 out of 1,344 schools in 2021-2022.
River Valley Elementary School appears to be well-resourced, with a high per-student spending of $35,070 and a low student-teacher ratio of 12:1. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 24.0% is relatively high, which could be an area of concern and require further investigation. Additionally, a significant portion of the school's students (62.5%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a need for additional support and resources for these students.
