Summary

Mark C Roose Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Warren, Michigan, serving 462 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Center Line Public Schools district, which is ranked 503 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Mark C Roose Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the state and district averages in M-Step test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 16.9%, compared to 23.4% for the district and 38.9% for the state. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 29.5% to 52.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. When compared to nearby schools, such as Crothers Elementary and Schofield Elementary, Mark C Roose Elementary School generally performs worse academically.

Despite the school's low academic performance, it has a relatively high per-student spending of $16,941 in the 2023-2024 school year, which is higher than the state average. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's challenges. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 17.3 in 2023-2024 is higher than the nearby schools, which may also be a contributing factor to the academic struggles. The significant performance gaps between different student subgroups, particularly along racial and socioeconomic lines, suggest that the school may need to address issues of educational equity and provide more targeted support for underperforming student populations.

VERY BAD CARELESS TEACHERS AND MEAN TEACHERS! Close Quote

by a parent
Tuesday, September 6, 2011

This School has around 29 Students Per Teacher, and not the 16 that was stated for the Student/Teacher Ratio from 2009-2010. There were around the same amount last year. There was an Elementary School that Closed last Year and those Children were moved to Roose, well at least a big majority of them did. Today, the First Day of School was so unorganized; Parents looking to see where to send their Children at; there wasn't any Teachers out in the back of the Building were the kids would be going in. The Teachers came out way past the start of School and the Bell didn't ring at all. I don't know how the kids are going to get a Good Education, with having that many kids to a Teacher. Close Quote
