Eriksson Elementary School

Summary:

Eriksson Elementary School is a public elementary school in Canton, Michigan, serving 461 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools district, which is ranked 100 out of 610 districts in Michigan and has a 4-star rating.

Eriksson Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with higher percentages of African American, Hispanic, and Asian students compared to nearby schools. However, the school faces challenges, including a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate of 25.2% and lower academic performance across grade levels and subject areas. For example, Eriksson's 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 27.8%, compared to 55.4% for the district and 39.6% for the state. These performance issues may be linked to the school's higher percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 44.03% receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

While Eriksson has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6, its performance has declined over the years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 475 out of 1,344 Michigan elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 924 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as male students and Asian students. Compared to nearby schools, like Tonda Elementary School, Eriksson consistently underperforms across all subject areas and grade levels.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
