McIntyre Elementary School

Summary:

McIntyre Elementary School is a public elementary school in Southfield, Michigan, serving 360 students in grades 1-5. The school is part of the Southfield Public School District, which is ranked 439 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

McIntyre Elementary School faces several challenges, including a student population that is 95.83% African American, significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools. The school has also experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.9% in 2020-2021 to 47.4% in 2021-2022, which is much higher than the state and district averages. Academically, the school's performance on M-Step tests is generally below the state and district averages, particularly in math and science, though its English Language Arts scores are closer to the averages. When looking at specific student subgroups, McIntyre performs relatively well for its African American students, ranking in the top 50 out of 348 Michigan elementary schools in this category, but struggles with other subgroups like female students, male students, and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Compared to nearby schools in the Southfield Public School District, such as Vandenberg Elementary School and MacArthur K8 University Academy, McIntyre Elementary School's performance is generally lower, with these other schools demonstrating higher academic achievement and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of $18,264 and a low student-teacher ratio of 15:1, McIntyre Elementary School has not yet seen significant academic gains, suggesting that addressing the root causes of its challenges, such as improving attendance and implementing targeted interventions, could be crucial for improving the school's overall performance.

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.
