Huron Academy Grades 38

Summary:

Huron Academy Grades 38 is a public charter middle school in Clinton Township, Michigan, serving 396 students in grades 3-8. While the school has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, its academic performance, as measured by test scores, lags behind state averages and the surrounding schools. Additionally, Huron Academy faces challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism and a large percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Huron Academy's student body is 59.85% White, 26.26% African American, 3.03% Hispanic, 5.56% Asian, and 5.05% two or more races, making it more diverse than the nearby Eastland Middle School, Davis Junior High School, and other surrounding schools. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by M-Step and PSAT test scores, is generally lower than the state averages and the nearby schools. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of Huron Academy students proficient or better in M-Step English Language Arts ranged from 25% to 36.6%, compared to the state averages of 37.5% to 44%.

Huron Academy also faces significant challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 35.9% to 57.6% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 62.37% to 72.82% in recent years, higher than the surrounding Roseville Community Schools, Utica Community Schools, and other districts. These factors, combined with lower spending per student compared to nearby schools, suggest that Huron Academy faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
