Summary

Tyrone Elementary School in Harper Woods, MI, serves roughly 300 students in grades 3 through 5 and is part of the Harper Woods The School District of the City of.

Tyrone Elementary is facing significant academic challenges. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 3rd percentile of all Michigan elementary schools, a position it has held for the past five years. Proficiency rates in reading and math are dramatically below state averages—for example, only about 5% of 3rd graders met state reading standards, compared to a 38% state average. Nearly 89% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and chronic absenteeism is a major concern, hovering around 51%—nearly double the state average. This means many students are missing critical instructional time, which directly impacts learning. While the school spends over $17,000 per student—more than some nearby higher-performing schools—that investment has not yet translated into better test scores.

There are a few important bright spots and comparisons worth noting. Reading proficiency does improve as students move through the grades, climbing from 5% in 3rd grade to about 22% in 5th grade, suggesting some cumulative progress. However, a consistent gender gap exists, with boys scoring at the very bottom of state rankings. The contrast with nearby schools is stark: just two miles away, Kerby Elementary School in Grosse Pointe Public Schools ranks in the 92nd percentile with only 8% chronic absenteeism. Even more telling, Chandler Park Academy Elementary, a charter school with similar poverty levels just 1.6 miles away, has a chronic absenteeism rate of only 6.8% and significantly higher test scores. This shows that high poverty doesn't have to mean low performance—improving attendance could be a critical first step for Tyrone.
