Summary:
The Blissfield Community Schools district in Michigan has one elementary school, Blissfield Elementary, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has some positive attributes, it faces several challenges that impact its overall performance and ranking compared to other Michigan elementary schools.
Blissfield Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students proficient in English Language Arts, but its Math proficiency rates are well below the state average across all grade levels. The school also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6%, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's performance on Social Studies assessments is low, with only 21.7% of 5th graders proficient. These academic concerns have contributed to the school's relatively low overall state ranking, placing it in the bottom third of Michigan elementary schools.
Other notable characteristics of Blissfield Elementary include its predominantly White student population (90.49%), with low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. The school's spending per student is $11,989, and it has a student-teacher ratio of 16.6 to 1. Unfortunately, the school's state ranking has been declining over the past three years, suggesting that it may be falling behind its peers in terms of academic performance and other key metrics. The school's leadership and community will need to address these challenges to improve the educational outcomes for its students.
