Summary

Lorenz C List School is a highly-rated elementary school in Frankenmuth, MI, serving 479 students in grades PK-4 as part of the top-ranked Frankenmuth School District.

This school delivers exceptional academic results that far surpass state averages. In the most recent school year, 4th graders achieved 74.5% proficiency in math and 70.8% in English language arts, compared to state averages of just 39.4% and 41.3% respectively. Third graders also excel, with proficiency rates roughly 20 points above the state in both subjects. The school's overall ranking jumped dramatically to the 93rd percentile statewide—a remarkable improvement from the previous year. What makes this even more impressive is that the school achieves these outcomes while spending less per student ($12,168) than every nearby school, some of which spend up to 78% more yet rank in the bottom 10% statewide. Chronic absenteeism sits at just 13.2%, less than half the state average, indicating strong family engagement and student attendance.

When compared to schools within a 12-mile radius, the differences are stark. Reese Elementary School and Meachum Elementary perform well but below Lorenz C List, while schools like Arthur Eddy Academy and Jessie Loomis School in the Saginaw School District of the City of rank in the single digits statewide. Notably, Lorenz C List achieves outstanding results with its economically disadvantaged students, who perform at the 93rd percentile—nearly matching the overall student body. This demonstrates the school's effectiveness at supporting all learners, regardless of economic background, making it an excellent choice for families in the Frankenmuth area.

We have had such a great experience with List Elementary. The teachers and staff truly care about the kids, and it shows in the way they know them, support them, and push them to do their best. The principal is very visible and approachable, and you can tell he is genuinely involved in what is happening throughout the school, not just sitting in an office. There are high expectations for both learning and behavior, but also a lot of care and support along the way. List has a wonderful staff, strong leadership, and a real sense of community. It is simply a great place for kids. Close Quote

List Elementary is a wonderful school with the most amazing and caring staff. When moving into the area we looked at schools in several of the surrounding towns, but nothing even came close to the quality of education and fantasitc environment we found at List. We love everything about this community and the schools here in Frankenmuth. Close Quote

Both of my children attended all three public schools in Frankenmuth. I feel that they were treated well and were well prepared for their college years. Close Quote
