Clinton Valley Elementary School

Summary:

Clinton Valley Elementary School is a public magnet elementary school in Mount Clemens, Michigan, serving 328 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Chippewa Valley Schools district, which is ranked 221 out of 610 school districts in the state.

While Clinton Valley Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with 55.79% White, 26.52% African American, and 14.94% two or more races, it has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates reaching 41.7% in the 2021-2022 school year. Academically, the school's performance on M-Step tests is generally lower than the district and state averages, with only 51.9% of 3rd-graders proficient in English Language Arts compared to 42.1% for the district and 39.6% for the state. The school's statewide ranking has also declined in recent years, from 867 out of 1,466 Michigan elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 1,036 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024.

Compared to nearby schools like Ottawa Elementary School, Tenniswood Elementary School, and Walt Disney Elementary School, Clinton Valley Elementary has higher per-student spending but lower academic performance. The school's diversity and higher spending do not seem to translate into better outcomes for students, suggesting that addressing the challenges of chronic absenteeism and improving academic achievement will be crucial for the school's future success.

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.
