Summary

May V Peck Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Center Line, Michigan, serving 348 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Center Line Public Schools district, which is ranked 503 out of 613 districts in the state.

Despite increased per-student spending, May V Peck Elementary School has consistently struggled with low academic performance, ranking in the bottom quarter of Michigan elementary schools over the past decade. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly below the state and district averages, with only 35.2% of 3rd graders proficient in English Language Arts and 29.5% proficient in Math, compared to state averages of 38.9% and 42.7%, respectively. Nearby schools in the district, such as Cromie Elementary School and Lincoln Elementary School, generally perform better on these assessments.

The school's high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 29.5% to 43% over the past few years, are also a concern, as regular attendance is crucial for academic success.

Addressing the underlying factors contributing to these challenges, such as access to resources and support services, will be essential for improving student outcomes at May V Peck Elementary School.
