Summary

Maybury Elementary School is a public elementary school in Detroit, Michigan, serving 277 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Detroit Public Schools Community District, which is ranked 549 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Maybury Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 15% of Michigan elementary schools, with low performance on state assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 16.1% of 3rd graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 38.9% statewide and 12.9% in the district. The school's performance is particularly low in Math, with only 13-27.6% of students achieving proficiency across grades 3-5, compared to 32.9-42.7% statewide. Maybury also experiences extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 66.1% over the past 3 years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages.

The nearby schools, such as Harms Elementary, Academy of the Americas, and Burton International Academy, also perform poorly on academic measures and have high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism, suggesting systemic challenges in the local area. However, some schools, like Neinas Dual Language Learning Academy and Earhart Elementary/Middle School, show slightly better academic performance, indicating that there may be pockets of success within the Detroit Public Schools Community District.
