Summary

Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy is an elementary school located in Detroit, Michigan that serves 689 students in grades K-8. The school is part of the Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy District, which is ranked 504 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy faces significant challenges in improving student achievement and engagement. The school has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 68.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools. Additionally, the school consistently performs well below the state averages on M-Step and PSAT assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 20.8% compared to the state average of 38.9%. Despite spending more per student than the state average, the school is unable to translate this additional funding into improved academic outcomes for its students.

While Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy struggles, the nearby traditional public schools in the Detroit Public Schools Community District and the Eastpointe Community Schools district also perform poorly on state assessments, with proficiency rates often below 20%. This suggests systemic challenges in the broader region. Addressing the underlying factors that contribute to these issues will be crucial for Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy and the surrounding schools to better serve their high-need student populations.
