Rodgers Elementary School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, low academic performance, and a lack of racial diversity compared to nearby schools. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts range from 25.7% to 36.1%, which is significantly lower than the district's 28% to 41.6% and the state's 39.6% to 44%. Additionally, 59.27% of Rodgers' students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. The school's statewide ranking has also steadily declined, from 522 out of 1,580 Michigan elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 1,111 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Masonic Heights Elementary and Violet Elementary, Rodgers Elementary School's academic performance is generally lower, with these schools having higher proficiency rates and better overall rankings. Despite increased spending per student, from $11,852 in 2019-2020 to $14,950 in 2022-2023, the school has not seen a corresponding improvement in student outcomes, suggesting a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation.

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.
