Summary

Holbrook School is an elementary school located in Hamtramck, Michigan, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 165 students. The school is part of the Hamtramck School District, which is ranked 525 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Holbrook School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Michigan elementary schools, with performance on state assessments (M-Step and PSAT) significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 19.23% of 6th-grade students were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 38.6% statewide. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 46.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While the nearby Dickinson East, Dickinson West, and Tau Beta School also perform poorly on academic measures and have high rates of chronic absenteeism and low-income students, some local charter schools, such as Hamtramck Academy and Hanley International Academy, have significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates well above the district and state averages.
