Clear Lake Elementary School

Summary:

Clear Lake Elementary School is a public elementary school in Oxford, Michigan, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Oxford Community Schools district.

Clear Lake Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state in academic proficiency, with over 50% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, Math, and Science. The school's low-income students also perform exceptionally well, ranking among the top in Michigan. However, the school has a predominantly White student population, which is not representative of the racial diversity in the state and nearby districts. Additionally, Clear Lake Elementary has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, a concerning trend that the school and district should address.

Compared to nearby schools, Carpenter Elementary School, Stadium Drive Elementary School, and Bailey Lake Elementary School serve more diverse student populations and have lower rates of chronic absenteeism, while still maintaining strong academic performance. The Lake Orion Community Schools and Clarkston Community School District also offer alternative options for families in the area.

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.
