Erie Elementary School

Summary:

Erie Elementary School is a public magnet elementary school located in Clinton Twp, MI, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 427. The school is part of the Chippewa Valley Schools district, which is ranked 221 out of 610 districts in Michigan and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Erie Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (79.86%) compared to the surrounding schools, it faces several challenges. The school has seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.4% in 2018-2019 to 16.0% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, Erie Elementary's test scores, while generally higher than the state average, lag behind the Chippewa Valley Schools district average in most subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, Erie's 5th-grade math proficiency rate was 29.6%, compared to the district's 37.6% and the state's 32.6%. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students (38.41%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families.

When comparing Erie Elementary to other schools in the Chippewa Valley district, it becomes evident that the school is underperforming relative to its peers. For instance, Huron Elementary and Ojibwa Elementary have higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Additionally, despite being located less than a mile away, Erie Elementary's performance lags behind that of Cherokee Elementary, which has higher test scores and a lower chronic absenteeism rate.

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.
