Summary

Robinson School is a K-4 elementary school in Grand Haven, MI, serving 223 students as part of the highly rated Grand Haven Area Public Schools district. The school has a consistent record of strong academic performance, ranking in the top 20% of elementary schools statewide for over a decade, with its most recent ranking placing it in the 87th percentile.

Robinson School's standout strength is mathematics. In the most recent school year, 72.9% of 3rd graders and 67.4% of 4th graders were proficient in math—dramatically higher than the state average of about 42% and 39% respectively. The school also excels at supporting students who face economic challenges, ranking in the 97th percentile statewide for its effectiveness with low-income students in recent years. Additionally, Robinson ranks in the 92nd percentile for its work with special education students, demonstrating that its academic programs are highly equitable. One of the most impressive recent developments is the school's dramatic turnaround in attendance: chronic absenteeism dropped from a staggering 87.6% in 2021-2022 to just 11.6% in the most recent year—far below both the district and state averages. This improvement coincides with a return to higher academic rankings, suggesting a strong link between attendance and achievement.

While Robinson excels in math, its English Language Arts proficiency is more moderate—above state averages but slightly below district averages. Within the Grand Haven district, Robinson is a high performer, though Rosy Mound School ranks higher overall. However, Robinson outperforms district peers like Griffin Elementary School and Ferry School, despite having similar demographic profiles. The nearby Spring Lake Public Schools (including Holmes Elementary School and Jeffers Elementary School) achieve higher overall test scores, but those schools serve a significantly lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Given its demographic context, Robinson's performance is highly commendable, making it a model of effective and equitable education within its district.
