Summary

Frank E Weiss Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Woodhaven, Michigan, with around 300 students. The school is part of the Gibraltar School District, which is ranked 283 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Frank E Weiss Elementary has relatively high spending per student, ranging from $13,931 to $16,108 over the past few years, the school's performance on key metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism rates lags behind nearby schools. For example, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 37% in 2024-2025, compared to 46.3% for the district and 38.9% for the state. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.8% to 30.8%, are significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Chapman Elementary (29.5%) and Parsons Elementary (29.5%).

However, the school's performance on M-Step assessments varies significantly by student subgroup, with its Low Socioeconomic Status students performing better than the overall student population. This suggests that the school is able to effectively support its economically disadvantaged students, despite the overall academic challenges the school faces. When compared to other elementary schools in the area, such as Yake Elementary in the Woodhaven-Brownstown School District, Frank E Weiss Elementary generally performs below average on key metrics.
