Hoover Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Michigan elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 1382 out of 1488 schools and a 0-star rating. The school's academic performance is significantly below state and district averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that are much lower than the state and district.
