Summary

Plymouth Elementary School in Midland, MI, is a K-5 school with 406 students, serving a more economically diverse population than many of its neighbors within the highly-rated Midland Public Schools district.

One of the most important things to know about Plymouth is its student body: 51.2% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, a rate nearly double that of nearby schools like Siebert Elementary School (27.1%), Woodcrest Elementary School (27.7%), and Adams Elementary School (28.0%). Despite this challenge, Plymouth ranks in the 65th percentile statewide, which is above average but below its more affluent district peers. The school shows a notable strength in supporting its low-income students, who rank in the 71st percentile statewide—higher than the school's overall rank. Plymouth also spends more per student ($15,735) than schools like Siebert ($12,481), reflecting a commitment to addressing greater student needs.

However, there are areas of concern. Plymouth's overall state ranking has declined from the 80th percentile in 2022-2023 to 65th in 2025-2026. A widening gender gap exists, with female students ranking in the 67th percentile versus 55th for males. Most critically, the Special Education subgroup has seen a sharp drop from the 59th to the 33rd percentile over two years. On a positive note, chronic absenteeism has improved from 21.6% to 16.0%, which is better than the state average of 27.9%. Grade-level performance is mixed—4th-grade math is strong (54.7% proficiency), while 3rd and 5th-grade math lag behind district averages. For parents, Plymouth is a school working hard to serve a diverse population, with particular strengths in supporting low-income students, but it faces clear challenges in maintaining overall academic momentum and serving its male and special education students effectively.
