Summary

Beaverton Elementary School in Beaverton, MI, serves 411 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade and is part of the Beaverton Schools district, a mid-tier district in a rural, working-class area of central Michigan.

Beaverton Elementary currently ranks in the 40th percentile statewide, placing it in the lower-middle tier of Michigan elementary schools. This represents a dip from its recent peak in the 2022-2023 school year (56th percentile) but also shows meaningful recovery from the 1-star ratings it received between 2017 and 2021. The school has held steady at a 2-star rating since then, suggesting recent gains are sticking. When compared to nearby schools, Beaverton sits in the middle of the pack—it outperforms Robert M Larson Elementary School (20th percentile) and Coleman Elementary School (30th percentile) but trails higher-performing schools like Woodcrest Elementary School (86th percentile) and Meridian Elementary School (67th percentile). Notably, Beaverton outperformed its closest rival, Gladwin Intermediate School, in 5th-grade math, science, and social studies during the 2025-2026 school year—a bright spot for upper-elementary students.

One of the school's clear strengths is science, where 43.5% of 5th graders were proficient—above the state average and higher than several nearby schools. However, English Language Arts (ELA) remains a persistent challenge, with proficiency rates in 3rd and 4th grades hovering around 21-22%, well below state averages of 38-41%. The school also shows a notable gender gap, with stronger outcomes for male students than female students. On a positive note, Beaverton performs relatively well with its economically disadvantaged students (41st percentile), despite 56.93% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Chronic absenteeism (22.8%) is better than the district and state averages but remains more than double that of Clare Primary School, suggesting attendance is an area worth watching. For parents, Beaverton Elementary offers a supportive environment that has stabilized after past struggles, with particular strengths in science and serving students facing economic challenges.
