Summary:
George Crockett Academy is the sole elementary school located in the George Crockett Academy district, serving grades PK-8 in Detroit, Michigan. With a total enrollment of 321 students, the school is ranked 1331 out of 1488 Michigan elementary schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
George Crockett Academy faces significant challenges in educating its students. The school's test scores are consistently below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 11.9% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 38.9%. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. These factors, combined with the fact that 100% of the students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicate that the school serves a highly economically disadvantaged population that may require additional resources and support to ensure their academic success.
Despite the higher-than-average spending per student of $15,193 and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio of 14.8, the data suggests that George Crockett Academy is struggling to effectively educate its students. The consistently low test scores and high chronic absenteeism rate over the past three school years suggest that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes and address the unique needs of its student population.
