Summary

Moorsbridge Elementary consistently outperforms the Portage Public Schools district and the state of Michigan in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 58.6% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 51.3% for the district and 38.9% for the state. The school's performance is particularly strong in Math, with 64% of 3rd graders, 68.1% of 4th graders, and 47.3% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Moorsbridge also excels in Science and Social Studies, with 5th-grade proficiency rates of 66.1% and 54.5%, respectively, outpacing the district and state.

While Moorsbridge Elementary's academic performance is impressive, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.0% in 2023-2024 to 29.5% in 2023-2024. This is an area that the school and district should closely monitor and address. Compared to nearby schools, Moorsbridge consistently outperforms Angling Road Elementary, Central Elementary, and Woodland Elementary in academic performance, particularly in Math and Science. However, the nearby 12th Street Elementary school also demonstrates strong academic performance, with 3rd-grade Math proficiency rates exceeding Moorsbridge's in 2024-2025.
