Summary

Frostick School is an elementary school in Croswell, MI, serving 324 students in grades PK through 4 as part of the Croswell-Lexington Community Schools district, where about two-thirds of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Frostick has seen a notable decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from the 80th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 60th percentile in 2025-2026, and its current 3-star rating reflects this downturn. The most concerning trend is in 3rd-grade English Language Arts, where proficiency fell from 50.7% in 2023-2024 to just 26.8% in 2024-2025 before recovering slightly to 36.1%. This contrasts sharply with 4th-grade performance, where 48% of students were proficient in ELA in the most recent year, suggesting the school may be more effective in upper elementary grades or that the current 3rd-grade cohort faces unique challenges. There is also a significant gap between male and female students, with boys ranking in the 75th percentile statewide while girls rank in only the 30th percentile—a 45-point disparity that has persisted over multiple years.

Despite these challenges, Frostick shows real strengths. The school excels with its low-income students, who rank in the 80th percentile statewide and earn a 4-star rating—a remarkable achievement given that 66.67% of the student body qualifies for free or reduced lunch. Chronic absenteeism, however, remains a concern at 21.7%, notably higher than nearby Meyer Elementary (13.5%) and Edison Elementary (10.6%). Frostick's performance also lags significantly behind its same-district counterpart, Meyer Elementary, which ranks in the 91st percentile with a 5-star rating. Per-student spending at Frostick ($15,481) is comparable to other area schools, suggesting the gap isn't simply about funding. For parents, this is a school that does well supporting students from low-income backgrounds but is currently struggling with consistency across grade levels and gender groups.
