Summary:
Detroit Innovation Academy is the sole elementary school located in the Detroit Innovation Academy district, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 363 students. Based on the available data, this school appears to be struggling academically, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Michigan elementary schools over the past few years and performing significantly below state averages on standardized tests.
The school's statewide ranking has been consistently low, with a 0 out of 5 SchoolDigger star rating. Its proficiency rates on the M-Step and PSAT exams are notably lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with the highest 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 15.2% compared to the state average of 38.9%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average.
These academic and attendance challenges may be exacerbated by the school's socioeconomic factors, as 92.29% of its students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high concentration of students from low-income families. Addressing these persistent issues will likely require targeted interventions and support to improve student learning, engagement, and overall school performance.
