Elementary Schools in McLouth

Summary:

The McLouth Elementary is the sole elementary school located in the McLouth school district. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and has faced fluctuations in its academic performance and statewide ranking over the past few years.

While McLouth Elementary has seen some areas of strength, such as above-average 5th-grade proficiency rates in Science, the school's overall performance has been mixed. Its statewide ranking has ranged from 207 out of 660 schools in 2022-2023 to 360 out of 653 in 2023-2024, with the school earning 3 out of 5 stars in 2024-2025. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics have also varied, sometimes exceeding the state averages and other times falling below them.

The data suggests that McLouth Elementary may be facing challenges related to student attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5% in the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, the school serves a population with a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which could indicate socioeconomic challenges that may impact academic performance. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the fluctuating performance suggests that the district may need to explore ways to better support the school and its students in maintaining consistent academic success.
