Summary

TC Holbrook Elementary School in Grand Ledge, MI, serves 506 students in Kindergarten through 4th grade and is part of the highly-rated Grand Ledge Public Schools district, which ranks in the 78th percentile statewide.

TC Holbrook has a complex performance profile. While the school earned a 2-star rating (48th percentile) in the most recent school year, it shows notable strengths in specific areas. The school has exceptionally low chronic absenteeism at just 11.7%, which is less than half the state rate of 27.9%—a strong foundation for learning. Additionally, TC Holbrook demonstrates above-average effectiveness with male students (64th percentile) and serves its special education population relatively well (52nd percentile). However, the school faces significant challenges. Most striking is a consistent and dramatic drop in proficiency between 3rd and 4th grade. In math, for example, 3rd-grade proficiency was 44.7%, but only 29.9% of 4th graders were proficient—a 14.8-point decline that has persisted for several years. The school also shows a large gender disparity, ranking just 27th percentile for female students compared to 64th percentile for males. When compared to district peers, TC Holbrook is the lowest-performing elementary school, trailing Willow Ridge Elementary School (89th percentile), Wacousta Elementary School (67th percentile), and Delta Center Elementary School (62nd percentile).

For parents considering TC Holbrook, the school's strengths in attendance and support for certain student groups are encouraging, but the 4th-grade transition appears to be a critical area of concern. The school's per-student spending ($13,549) is comparable to its district peers, suggesting resources are not the issue. The percentage of students eligible for free/reduced lunch has decreased from 40.5% to 31.6% over the past few years, reflecting a shifting demographic profile. While TC Holbrook faces real academic challenges—particularly in 4th-grade math and for female students—it still outperforms many schools in the surrounding area, reflecting the overall strength of the Grand Ledge district. Parents may want to ask school administrators about strategies for supporting students through the 4th-grade transition and how they plan to address the gender-based achievement gap.
