Despite the inconsistent academic performance, the school has a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (5.52%) and a high spending per student ($16,743). Additionally, the school has a small student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1, which may contribute to the school's academic performance. Overall, the data suggests that while Holland Township Elementary School has some strengths, there are also areas for potential improvement, and further investigation into the factors driving these differences could help the school district identify strategies to improve student outcomes across the board.
