Angell Elementary School

Summary:

Angell Elementary School is a public elementary school in Berkley, Michigan, serving 385 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Berkley School District, which is ranked 62 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Angell Elementary stands out for its high academic performance, with students consistently scoring above the state average on M-Step tests across all grade levels and subjects. However, the school's performance lags behind the Berkley School District average in many areas. Notably, Angell has a higher percentage of White students (79.22%) compared to surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school also has a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (26.49%), suggesting a more affluent student body. Interestingly, Angell's African American students perform at a high level, ranking among the top 6 schools in Michigan for this subgroup, but there are still potential racial achievement gaps that warrant further investigation.

Angell Elementary faces some challenges, including a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.9% in 2016-2017 to 20.0% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the state average. When compared to nearby schools, Burton Elementary consistently outperforms Angell, while Pattengill Elementary has a more diverse student population and lower academic performance. Schools in the neighboring Southfield Public School District, such as MacArthur K8 University Academy and Vandenberg Elementary, have much lower academic performance and higher rates of chronic absenteeism and free/reduced-price lunch eligibility compared to Angell Elementary.

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.
