Hoben Elementary School

Summary:

Hoben Elementary School is a public elementary school in Canton, Michigan, serving 464 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools district, which is ranked 100 out of 610 districts in the state.

Hoben Elementary has a unique student demographic, with a higher percentage of White students (71.12%) compared to nearby schools, as well as a relatively high percentage of Asian students (10.13%). Academically, the school consistently outperforms the state average on standardized tests, with its female, Asian, White, English Language Learner, Special Education, and low socioeconomic status student subgroups all performing well. However, Hoben's performance is mixed compared to the district, and it lags behind the high-performing South Canton Scholars Charter Academy and Canton Charter Academy in the area.

One area of concern for Hoben Elementary is its rising chronic absenteeism, which has increased from 5.4% in 2018-2019 to 19.0% in 2022-2023, higher than the state average and some nearby schools. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 16.6 is higher than some of its counterparts, despite spending more per student ($15,010) than the state average. These factors suggest opportunities for improvement and further investigation at Hoben Elementary School.

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.
