Summary

Eugene B Elliott Elementary School is a public elementary school in Westland, Michigan, serving 377 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Wayne-Westland Community School District, which is ranked 548 out of 613 districts in the state.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $16,683 to $23,379 over the past few years, Eugene B Elliott Elementary has consistently struggled with academic performance. The school's proficiency rates on M-Step tests are significantly lower than state and district averages, often falling between 12-25% in English Language Arts and Math, compared to state averages of 38.9-44.4% and district averages of 16.7-26.7%. The school also faces high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 66.5%, which are much higher than nearby schools like David Hicks School, TaftGalloway Elementary School, and Wildwood Elementary School, all of which have chronic absenteeism rates around 29.5%.

The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American students performing relatively better than their White and low-socioeconomic peers. Addressing these equity gaps and the underlying causes of chronic absenteeism, such as socioeconomic factors or transportation issues, will be crucial for improving student outcomes at Eugene B Elliott Elementary. Additionally, the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation to ensure that funding is being directed towards evidence-based interventions and strategies that can drive student learning and engagement.
