Summary

Grant Elementary School in Livonia, MI, is a PK-4 school serving 470 students within the highly regarded Livonia Public Schools School District, a district ranked in the 86th percentile statewide. The school has earned a consistent 4-star rating for five consecutive years and currently sits in the 84th percentile of Michigan elementary schools, a significant climb from its 57th percentile ranking a decade ago.

What truly sets Grant apart is its exceptional performance with students from low socio-economic backgrounds, where it ranks in the 92nd percentile statewide—a 5-star achievement. The school also demonstrates particular strength in mathematics, with 4th-grade proficiency rates (64.4%) that surpass both the district (56.4%) and state (39.4%) averages by wide margins. Chronic absenteeism at Grant is notably low at 15.3%, compared to 23.1% for the district and 27.9% statewide, suggesting a positive, engaging school climate. When compared to nearby options, Grant outperforms schools like Cleveland Elementary School and Rosedale Elementary within its own district, and far exceeds proficiency rates seen at Thomas A Edison Elementary School in Wayne-Westland or Thomas Jefferson Elementary School in South Redford, where proficiency rates linger in the teens and low 20s.

However, parents should be aware of two areas of concern. First, there is a widening gender gap: female students rank in the 90th percentile (5 stars) while male students have dropped to the 72nd percentile (4 stars). Second, and more critically, the school's performance with Special Education students has declined sharply, falling from the 64th percentile in 2023-2024 to just the 49th percentile (2 stars) in 2025-2026. Despite spending less per student ($18,064) than some peers like Roosevelt Elementary School ($19,656), Grant achieves better outcomes, indicating efficient use of resources. For families prioritizing strong math instruction, support for economically disadvantaged students, and a stable, engaging environment, Grant is an excellent choice—though it's worth asking the school about its current strategies for supporting both male students and those receiving special education services.
