Wilde Elementary has a higher percentage of White students (65.61%) compared to nearby schools, which tend to have more diverse student populations.

Academically, Wilde Elementary's performance, as measured by M-Step proficiency rates, is generally lower than the district and state averages.

Interestingly, Wilde Elementary's African American students perform significantly better than the school's overall performance, ranking in the top 47 out of 348 Michigan elementary schools for this subgroup in 2023-2024.
Wilde Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the years, from 461 out of 1,408 Michigan elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 843 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024. When compared to nearby schools, such as Black Elementary School, Wilde Elementary generally performs lower on academic measures. This may be due in part to the school's relatively high percentage of students (57.25% in 2022-2023) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite these challenges, Wilde Elementary has seen a steady increase in spending per student, from $12,771 in 2019-2020 to $17,432 in 2022-2023, which may provide opportunities for targeted interventions and resource allocation to improve overall student outcomes.
