Summary:
The Caro Community Schools district in Michigan is home to two elementary schools: McComb Elementary School and Schall Elementary School. Both schools serve students from kindergarten through fifth grade and are part of the Caro Community Schools district, which is ranked 399 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 2 out of 5-star rating.
While the two elementary schools have similar characteristics, such as enrollment (320 students at McComb, 293 at Schall), free and reduced lunch rates (around 71%), and spending per student (around $16,000), there are some notable differences in their academic performance. Schall Elementary's proficiency rates on the M-Step assessments for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades are consistently below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math. Additionally, the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate is above the state average, but the Social Studies proficiency rate is below.
Both schools also face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, at 29.5% for both McComb and Schall Elementary. This suggests a need to address attendance and engagement issues across the district. Overall, the data indicates that the elementary schools in the Caro Community Schools district are performing at a similar level, with Schall Elementary facing more significant academic challenges that may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
