Summary

Edison Elementary School in Fort Gratiot, MI, is a high-achieving Pre-K through 5th grade school serving 404 students in the Port Huron Area School District, standing out as a top performer in an area where many nearby schools struggle.

Edison consistently earns a 4-star rating and ranks in the 77th percentile of all Michigan elementary schools—a remarkable feat when its home district ranks in the bottom 26th percentile statewide. The academic gap between Edison and its neighbors is striking. For example, 3rd-grade math proficiency at Edison is 70%, compared to a district average of just 27.9%. Nearby schools like Cleveland Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary School, and Woodrow Wilson Elementary rank in the bottom 15th percentile or lower, while the next closest competitor, Keewahdin Elementary School, sits at the 45th percentile. Edison also boasts an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 10.6%—less than a third of the district's 34.6% rate and far better than the state average of 27.9%.

What makes Edison particularly impressive is its efficiency and inclusivity. The school spends less per student ($14,371) than lower-performing district peers like Cleveland ($20,509) and Woodrow Wilson ($21,548), yet achieves dramatically better results. Edison's strength is consistent across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates in ELA and math well above state averages from 3rd through 5th grade. The school is especially effective at serving special education students, who rank in the 88th percentile statewide—a testament to strong support systems. Male students also perform exceptionally well, ranking in the 79th percentile. The one area for potential growth is 5th-grade math (44.6% proficiency) and social studies (29.7%), which dip compared to earlier grades, though they still nearly double district averages. For parents seeking a school that delivers strong, consistent results with efficient resource use and excellent support for diverse learners, Edison is a standout choice in the Port Huron area.
