Summary:
Barryton, Michigan has only one school, Barryton Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 and is part of the Chippewa Hills School District. The school has seen fluctuating statewide rankings in recent years, ranging from 770 out of 1,488 schools in 2024-2025 to 819 out of 1,470 schools in 2022-2023. While the school's test scores in English Language Arts and Math have been mixed, with some grades performing above district and state averages, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% and a high percentage of students (76.59%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the student population.
Despite these challenges, Barryton Elementary School appears to be focused on providing more individualized attention and resources to support student success, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.7 to 1 and higher-than-average spending per student of $15,274. However, the school's performance remains variable, and it could benefit from a more consistent and targeted improvement strategy to address the academic needs of its students.
Without additional data on other schools in the Barryton area, it is difficult to make direct comparisons or identify how Barryton Elementary School performs relative to its local peers. Expanding the data set to include more schools in the region would provide a more comprehensive understanding of the educational landscape and help identify areas where Barryton Elementary School can improve or collaborate with other schools to better serve the needs of the Barryton community.
