Summary

Peck Community Elementary School is a small, rural school in Peck, MI, serving 174 students in grades PK through 5, where over 70% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

This school stands out for its remarkable success in getting kids to school. Despite serving a high-poverty population, Peck Elementary has a chronic absenteeism rate of just 12.6%—far better than the state average of 27.9% and even beating more affluent neighbors like Yale Elementary School (15.1%) and Capac Elementary School (25.5%). This suggests strong family engagement and a welcoming environment, which is a solid foundation for learning. The school also spends a healthy $16,083 per student, on par with higher-performing districts like Yale Public Schools, indicating a real financial commitment to its students.

However, academic results tell a more complicated story. The school's state ranking has been volatile, swinging from the 50th percentile in 2024-2025 down to the 32nd percentile in 2025-2026. This dramatic swing suggests that a particularly strong cohort of 5th graders may have driven the earlier success, rather than systemic improvement. A consistent area of concern is upper elementary math, where 4th and 5th-grade proficiency has hovered between 13.5% and 32% over the past three years—well below state averages. There is also a notable gender gap, with female students outperforming male students in recent years. While the school's overall numbers are below state averages, its exceptional attendance record and adequate funding provide a strong base. The key challenge for Peck Community School District will be translating those strengths into more consistent academic growth, particularly in math and for its male students.
