Summary

Georgetown Elementary School in Hudsonville, MI, is a K-4 school serving 450 students within the highly-ranked Hudsonville Public School District, which sits in the 97th percentile statewide.

Georgetown is a consistently high-performing school with a current 5-star rating, but its most compelling story is one of remarkable recent improvement. After a temporary dip in the 2023-2024 school year, the school surged from a state rank of 250th to 48th out of roughly 1,400 schools—a jump of over 200 places in just one year. This rebound suggests strong leadership and effective teaching that can quickly correct course. The school also stands out for its exceptional work with male students, ranking 23rd in the state for effectiveness with this group. While nearby Bauer Elementary School remains the district's top performer with slightly higher test scores, Georgetown's trajectory is the steepest among its peers, including Alward Elementary School and Park Elementary School.

One of Georgetown's greatest strengths is student engagement. Its chronic absenteeism rate of just 5.7% is roughly half the district average and nearly five times lower than the state average, indicating a welcoming environment where kids want to be. The school also demonstrates a strong commitment to equity, with all student subgroups performing in the 95th percentile or higher. Notably, Georgetown achieves these results while spending less per student ($15,016) than nearby schools like Park ($21,788) and Bauer ($17,596), suggesting efficient use of resources. For parents, Georgetown offers a proven track record of academic excellence, a supportive climate, and a school that clearly knows how to help every child succeed.
