Eisenhower School

Summary:

Eisenhower School is an elementary school in Flint, Michigan, serving 229 students in grades PK-6. It is part of the Flint School District, which is ranked 594 out of 606 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The student population at Eisenhower School is predominantly African American (60.7%), with smaller percentages of White (24.89%) and Hispanic (4.37%) students.

Eisenhower School faces significant challenges, including an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 83% and consistently low academic performance. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 16% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 40.9%. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students (94.32%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While Eisenhower School has relatively high spending per student ($21,407) and a relatively high student-teacher ratio (19.9), these resources have not translated into improved student outcomes.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Pierce School, Dye Elementary School, and West Bendle Elementary School, Eisenhower School stands out as one of the lowest-performing elementary schools in the Flint School District. Addressing the unique challenges faced by the Eisenhower School community will require a comprehensive, targeted approach that leverages available resources to support student success.

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.
