Summary

Miami Elementary School is a public magnet elementary school located in Clinton Township, Michigan, serving 479 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Chippewa Valley Schools district, which is ranked 240 out of 613 school districts in Michigan and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Chippewa Valley Schools district, Miami Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Michigan elementary schools, with rankings ranging from 699 to 1188 out of around 1500 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on state assessments (M-Step) is generally below the district and state averages across various grade levels and subject areas, particularly in Math, where proficiency rates ranged from 28.3% to 41.5% in 2024-2025, compared to the district's 34.1% to 42.5% and the state's 32.9% to 42.7%. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 30.8% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average.

However, these nearby schools also have similar high chronic absenteeism rates.
