Summary:
The Pittsford Area Schools district in Michigan consists of two schools: Pittsford Area High School and Pittsford Area Elementary School. Both schools are performing below state averages on key metrics, with the district as a whole ranked 545 out of 613 in Michigan and rated only 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
At the high school, the 4-year graduation rate is 82.8%, and the dropout rate is 7.6%, both of which are worse than state averages. Chronic absenteeism is also high at 29.5%. Academically, the school's test scores are significantly below state averages across all subjects and grade levels. The high school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 65.6%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the district.
The elementary school faces similar challenges, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% and test scores that are consistently well below state averages. The elementary school has an even higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 75.16%. Both schools have relatively high spending per student, but this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The student-teacher ratios are also relatively high, which could be a contributing factor to the academic struggles faced by the district.
