Beacon Day Treatment Center

Summary:

Beacon Day Treatment Center is a small alternative public school in Southgate, Michigan, serving students from kindergarten to 12th grade. With just 115 students, the school is part of the Southgate Community School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Beacon Day Treatment Center faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. Its 4-year graduation rate is only 12.5%, much lower than the 30.9% to 85.7% range of nearby schools. Dropout rates are alarmingly high, reaching 75% in the 2022-2023 school year, far exceeding the 3.2% to 22.2% range of nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism is also a major issue, with 82.1% of students chronically absent, compared to 14.3% to 68.9% at nearby schools. Test scores at Beacon Day Treatment Center are generally lower than the surrounding district and state averages, with only 30% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in M-Step/Science and M-Step/Social Studies, compared to 25.1% and 28.2% for the district and 39% and 36.1% for the state.

These concerning metrics suggest that Beacon Day Treatment Center requires significant interventions and support to improve student outcomes. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, as well as the school's alternative designation, may indicate that it serves a population of students with greater socioeconomic and educational challenges. Collaboration with the Southgate Community School District and other nearby schools, such as Patrick Henry Middle School and Trillium Academy, could be beneficial in developing a comprehensive plan to address the underlying issues and improve student outcomes at Beacon Day Treatment Center.

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.
