Summary

Laingsburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 521 students in grades PK-5 in Laingsburg, Michigan. The school is part of the Laingsburg Community Schools district, which is ranked 84 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Laingsburg Elementary School consistently performs above the state average in M-Step/English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies assessments across grades 3-5. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 44.7% to 57.6%, compared to the state averages of 32.9% to 44.4%. Compared to nearby schools like Vera Ralya Elementary and Donley Elementary, Laingsburg Elementary generally outperforms these schools.

However, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 11.3% in 2020-2021 to 30.8% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average and nearby schools. The school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are in line with nearby schools, but the relatively average performance with low socioeconomic status students is an area for potential improvement. Overall, Laingsburg Elementary School is a high-performing school that excels academically, particularly in certain student subgroups, but the rising chronic absenteeism is a concern that should be addressed.
