Summary

Geer Park Elementary School is a public elementary school in Dearborn, Michigan, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 372 students. The school is part of the Dearborn City School District, which is ranked 279 out of 613 school districts in the state.

Geer Park Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Michigan elementary schools over the past five years, with below-average performance on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages. The school's proficiency rates have also declined in recent years. Additionally, Geer Park Elementary has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and a significant population of English Language Learners, which may contribute to its academic struggles. The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 22.1% to 30.8% over the past few years.

While Geer Park Elementary School has increased its per-student spending and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, these investments have not yet translated to significant improvements in academic outcomes. The school's performance is generally lower than that of nearby Lowrey Elementary, Maples Elementary, and Iris Becker Elementary, which have similar demographic characteristics but stronger academic performance. Addressing the underlying issues, such as chronic absenteeism and providing targeted interventions, may be crucial for Geer Park Elementary School to improve educational equity and student achievement.

Open Quote Terrible terrible school, worst I've ever gone too and I couldn't wait to get out! First of all, most of the teachers are not competent in the slightest! Some of them can barely speak English! The principal is absolutely horrendous, does not deal properly with school issues or anything for that matter. And for being such gold diggers, the school doesn't spend much money on the students! There are few if any good teachers in that school, you go into middle school not prepared if you don't prepare yourself. The school is also very filthy, and kids are constantly getting sick and getting their peers sick! Horrible school, avoid it if you can. Close Quote
