Summary:
Madison Academy has only one elementary school, Madison Academy ElementaryMiddle School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school is located in a high-poverty area, with 96.98% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Madison Academy ElementaryMiddle School has consistently performed poorly on state assessments, ranking in the bottom quarter of Michigan elementary schools. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was just 12.8%, compared to the state average of 38.9%. Despite relatively high per-student spending of $26,635, which is above the state average, the school's academic performance remains significantly below state benchmarks across all grade levels and subject areas.
The school's low student-teacher ratio of 7.4 could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention, but the data suggests that the school is struggling to effectively educate its students. Comprehensive and targeted interventions may be needed to address the school's challenges and improve student outcomes. Further analysis of the school's resource allocation and teaching practices could provide insights into how to best support the high-poverty student population and drive academic improvement.
