Dundee Elementary School

Summary:

Dundee Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 851 students in grades PK-4 in Dundee, Michigan, which is part of the Dundee Community Schools district. This high-performing school consistently outperforms the state average on academic assessments and maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top 20-25% of Michigan elementary schools.

Dundee Elementary's academic excellence is evident in its strong M-Step proficiency rates, which exceed the state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, 51.9% of 4th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 43.3%. In Math, 54.9% of 4th graders were proficient, compared to 39.1% statewide. The school also performs particularly well for its female students and low socioeconomic status students, ranking in the top 25-35% of Michigan elementary schools in these categories.

While Dundee Elementary has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism in recent years, its rate of 23.6% in 2022-2023 is still lower than many nearby schools, such as Custer Elementary in the Monroe Public Schools district, which had only 21.4% of 4th graders proficient in ELA and 12.2% in Math. Dundee Elementary's strong academic performance may be attributed to its higher spending per student, which has increased from $10,137 in 2020-2021 to $15,695 in 2022-2023, exceeding the state average and many nearby schools.

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.
