Manton Consolidated Elementary School

Summary:

Manton Consolidated Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 367 students in grades K-4 in Manton, Michigan. The school is part of the McBain Rural Agricultural Schools district, which is ranked 175 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Manton Consolidated Elementary consistently outperforms the state average on M-Step tests for English Language Arts and Math in grades 3 and 4. Despite having a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (59.13%), the school's performance for this subgroup is particularly strong, ranking in the top 94 out of 1,381 Michigan elementary schools. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 14.1% in 2018-2019 to 27.8% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, such as McBain Elementary and Forest View Elementary, Manton Consolidated Elementary generally outperforms its peers in academic achievement, particularly in English Language Arts and Math. However, some nearby schools have lower chronic absenteeism rates, which may be an area for Manton Consolidated Elementary to learn from. Additionally, the school's performance data shows notable differences in the rankings of male and female students, suggesting the school may need to examine potential gender-based disparities in learning and support.

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.
