Hoover Elementary consistently performs above the district and state averages in M-Step (Michigan's standardized test) proficiency rates for both English Language Arts and Math. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Hoover's 3rd-grade students had 74.5% proficiency in ELA and 72.4% in Math, compared to the district's 56.7% and 58.2%, and the state's 38.9% and 42.7%, respectively.
