Grandville East Elementary School

Summary:

Grandville East Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 313 students in grades PK-6 in Grandville, Michigan, which is part of the Grandville Public Schools district. While the school faces challenges with student diversity, chronic absenteeism, and academic performance, it appears to be making efforts to support its higher-need student population.

Grandville East has a more diverse student body compared to other Grandville Public Schools elementary schools, with a higher percentage of minority students. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 36.8% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the other Grandville elementary schools. Academically, Grandville East's proficiency rates on the M-Step assessments are generally lower than the district and state averages, though its Hispanic and low-socioeconomic status students perform relatively well compared to their peers statewide.

Despite these challenges, Grandville East appears to be receiving additional resources, with a higher per-student spending level ($16,605 in 2022-2023) compared to the other Grandville elementary schools. While the school's academic performance is lower than its Grandville peers, it outperforms some nearby schools in the Wyoming Public Schools district. Continued focus on improving attendance and academic outcomes, particularly in core subject areas, will be crucial for Grandville East Elementary'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.
