Summary:

The city of Weidman, Michigan is home to a single public elementary school, Weidman Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 and is part of the Chippewa Hills School District. This standout school has consistently ranked among the top 115 elementary schools in Michigan over the past three school years, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Weidman Elementary School's academic performance is significantly above the state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Math for 3rd and 4th grade students. In the 2024-2025 school year, 74.6% of 3rd graders and 66% of 4th graders were proficient or better in Math, compared to 42.7% and 39.4% statewide, respectively. However, the school also faces challenges, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is higher than the state average.

The school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 77.25% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. To support this student population, the school spends $16,633 per student, which is higher than the state average, and maintains a student-teacher ratio of 15:1, lower than the state average. These investments in resources and smaller class sizes may be contributing factors to the school's academic success.
