Summary

Reid Elementary School in Grand Blanc, MI, is a K-5 school serving 433 students as part of the highly-rated Grand Blanc Community Schools district, though the school itself has seen its state ranking decline steadily over the past decade.

Reid Elementary is a school with notable strengths and clear challenges. The most striking finding is that the school excels at serving its African American students, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 76th percentile statewide—a significant achievement. However, this success does not extend to students from low-income backgrounds, where the school ranks in the bottom 17th percentile. This suggests that economic disadvantage, rather than any other factor, is the primary barrier to academic success here. Overall, Reid's test scores lag well behind its district peers. For example, in 5th-grade English Language Arts, only 33.9% of Reid students were proficient, compared to 55.7% district-wide. The gap is even wider in science (23.7% vs. 49.5%) and social studies (16.9% vs. 46%). Nearby Indian Hill Elementary, just over 2 miles away, is a top performer with 61.3% 5th-grade ELA proficiency, while McGrath Elementary shows similar performance to Reid.

Several patterns stand out. First, student proficiency is relatively stronger in 3rd and 4th grades but drops sharply in 5th grade—ELA falls from about 43% in earlier grades to 33.9% in 5th grade, suggesting a possible transition challenge. Second, chronic absenteeism affects nearly one in four students (22.6%), though this is better than the state average. Third, Reid's per-student spending ($12,359) is lower than other district elementary schools like Indian Hill ($14,281) and Brendel Elementary ($13,723), despite having a significant population (46%) receiving free or reduced lunch. For parents considering Reid, the school's strength with African American students is noteworthy, but the declining overall trajectory, 5th-grade drop-off, and challenges supporting low-income students are important factors to explore further.
