Davisburg Elementary School

Summary:

Davisburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Holly Area School District, with 359 students and a predominantly White (82.45%) student population.

Academically, Davisburg Elementary has shown mixed performance compared to state and district averages. While its 4th grade ELA proficiency (50%) was higher than the district (44.3%) and state (43.3%) averages, the school's 3rd and 5th grade ELA proficiency were lower. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 13.3% in 2018-2019 to 23% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the state average of 15.6%. Davisburg Elementary also has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 50.42% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to other elementary schools in the area, such as Schoolcraft Elementary School, Clarkston Elementary School, and Holly Academy, Davisburg Elementary's performance is mixed, with the school outperforming some in certain grade levels and subjects, while underperforming in others. This suggests a need for a more comprehensive analysis to identify the specific factors contributing to the school's performance, as well as targeted interventions to address the challenges it faces, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate and the needs of its diverse student population.

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.
