Hanley International Academy

Summary:

Hanley International Academy is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the diverse city of Hamtramck, Michigan. With a student population that is over 80% Asian, Hanley has a unique racial makeup compared to the surrounding schools in the area.

While Hanley International Academy generally outperforms the state and local district averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency, particularly in the 3rd and 5th grade levels, the school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.1% to 41.4% in recent years. This is significantly higher than the state average and the surrounding schools. Additionally, Hanley has an extremely high percentage of students, over 97%, who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, much higher than nearby schools. Despite spending significantly more per student ($12,345 in 2022-2023) compared to the state average and nearby schools, Hanley International Academy has been consistently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger over the past decade, ranking in the bottom half of Michigan elementary schools.

Interestingly, while Hanley International Academy outperforms the state and local averages overall, there are significant disparities in performance between the Asian student subgroup and other racial groups. For example, in 2023-2024, Hanley's Asian students ranked in the bottom 10% of Michigan elementary schools in ELA and Math, while the African American students ranked in the top 20% for ELA. Compared to nearby schools, Hanley International Academy generally outperforms the traditional public schools in Hamtramck, such as Golightly Education Center and the Dickinson schools, in academic proficiency. However, the charter school Hamtramck Academy outperforms Hanley International Academy across most metrics.

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.
