Summary

Pine Trails Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Allegan, Michigan, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 339 students. The school is part of the Allegan Public Schools district, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pine Trails Elementary School has faced persistent academic challenges, consistently underperforming compared to the district and state averages in M-Step assessments for English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the district and state, with a 20.8% proficiency rate in 3rd grade ELA (vs. 36.2% district, 38.9% state) and 12.8% in 5th grade Math (vs. 29.2% district, 32.9% state). The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 29.5% to 33.7% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the typical 15-20% rate.

Interestingly, the nearby West Ward Elementary, North Ward Elementary, and Dawson Elementary schools within the Allegan Public Schools district generally outperform Pine Trails Elementary in academic assessments and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that the challenges faced by Pine Trails Elementary may be unique or more pronounced compared to other schools in the same district, potentially due to the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds at the school.
