Summary

HamiltonParsons Elementary School in Leonard, MI, is a K-5 school within the Romeo Community Schools district, serving 498 students in a largely residential, family-oriented area of northern Macomb County.

HamiltonParsons is a solid, above-average school that consistently ranks in the 71st–80th percentile statewide. In the most recent school year, it earned a 4-star rating and ranked 432nd out of 1,492 Michigan elementary schools. The school’s standout strength is 5th-grade science, where 54.7% of students are proficient—well above both the district (48.9%) and state (40%) averages. It also excels at supporting its low-income students, ranking in the 81st percentile for effectiveness with this group, a significant jump from the prior year. However, 5th-grade math is a persistent weak spot: only 44.2% of students are proficient, which trails the district average of 52.4%. This gap has held steady for two years, suggesting a targeted area for improvement. Within the district, HamiltonParsons sits behind Indian Hills Elementary School (a top-100 school statewide) but ahead of Washington Elementary School and Amanda Moore Elementary School.

Compared to nearby districts, HamiltonParsons is a good choice but not the highest-performing option in the area. Schools in the Rochester Community School District, such as Delta Kelly Elementary School, Hugger Elementary School, and Baldwin Elementary School, all rank in the 90th percentile or higher. For example, Delta Kelly’s 5th-grade math proficiency is 71.7% versus HamiltonParsons’ 44.2%. On the positive side, HamiltonParsons spends less per student ($11,969) than most peers yet still achieves above-average results, indicating efficient resource use. Chronic absenteeism is a manageable challenge at 14.6%—better than the state average of 27.9% but higher than Indian Hills’ 6.7%. For parents, HamiltonParsons offers a dependable, well-rounded education with clear strengths in science and strong support for all learners, though families seeking top-tier math outcomes may want to explore neighboring districts.
