Summary:
Hanley International Academy is the sole public charter school serving grades PK-8 in Hamtramck, Michigan. This high-need school has a student population where 96.35% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges. While the school's student-teacher ratio of 16.1 to 1 is relatively low, its academic performance, as measured by M-STEP and PSAT proficiency rates, is generally below the state averages across grade levels and subject areas.
Hanley International Academy's chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% in 2023-2024 is significantly higher than the state average, which may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 773rd out of 1,486 Michigan elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 924th out of 1,470 in 2022-2023, and it is currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Despite the challenges faced by Hanley International Academy, the school's higher-than-average spending per student of $13,138 suggests it may have additional resources to support its students. Addressing the issues of chronic absenteeism and inconsistent academic performance could be crucial for improving the school's overall outcomes and providing a better educational experience for its students.
