Summary

CK Schickler Elementary School in Lapeer, MI, serves 457 students from Pre-K through 4th grade as part of the Lapeer Community Schools district, and currently holds a 3-star rating with a statewide ranking in the 66th percentile.

CK Schickler is currently the top-performing elementary school in its district, surpassing Emma Murphy Elementary School (53rd percentile) and Turrill Elementary School (49th percentile), while tying with Elva Lynch Elementary School (66th percentile). The school shows exceptional strength in 3rd grade, where 58% of students are proficient in ELA and 60.9% in math—both well above district and state averages. CK Schickler also demonstrates remarkable success with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, ranking in the 76th percentile for low socioeconomic status students, and has shown a dramatic turnaround in special education services, jumping from the 17th to the 80th percentile in just one year. However, 4th grade math proficiency drops to 31.1%, significantly below the state average of 39.4%, suggesting a possible transition challenge between grade levels.

The school's most pressing concern is chronic absenteeism, which sits at 21.4%—nearly double the rate at nearby Turrill Elementary School (12.9%), located just 1.58 miles away. This gap may help explain why Turrill shows more consistent performance across grade levels. CK Schickler also spends more per student ($17,085) than any comparable school in the area, including the higher-rated Hill Elementary School in the Davison Community Schools district ($15,748), which ranks in the 90th percentile. While CK Schickler has demonstrated capacity for excellence—peaking at the 87th percentile in 2018-2019—addressing absenteeism and the 4th grade math decline could be key levers for reaching that higher tier of performance consistently.

Teachers and staff was wonderful on handling and teaching my son with disabilities. Also have wonderful programs for the children to grow out of the classroom. Awsome summer reading programs and lots of resources for the school,students, and the family's. The most important part is we are a large FAMILY in the school. Teachers,staff and volunteers go more then beyond what is expected out of them. Close Quote
