Hayes Elementary School

Summary:

Hayes Elementary School is a public elementary school in Westland, Michigan, serving students from kindergarten to 4th grade as part of the Livonia Public Schools School District. The school has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of white students compared to nearby schools, and a significant number of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Over the past several years, Hayes Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top half of Michigan elementary schools, with a rating of 3-4 stars out of 5 from SchoolDigger. This is higher than some nearby schools, such as the lower-ranked American International Academy Elementary and the schools in the Garden City Public Schools district. The school's proficiency rates in M-Step English Language Arts and Math for 3rd and 4th grades are generally higher than the state averages, and often on par with or slightly below the Livonia Public Schools district averages.

However, Hayes Elementary School has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism rates, from around 10% in 2017-2018 to over 22% in 2022-2023. This is higher than the surrounding schools, which also have high chronic absenteeism rates. While the school's performance is generally stronger than nearby schools, the declining trend in rankings and test scores, as well as the high chronic absenteeism rates, are areas that the school and district should focus on addressing to ensure continued academic success for all students.

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.
