Summary

Jane Addams Elementary School is a public school in Redford, MI, serving 297 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the South Redford School District, where about two-thirds of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

While Jane Addams scores below state averages overall, it stands out as the top-performing elementary school within its district. In fact, it consistently outperforms its district peers—including Fisher Elementary School and Thomas Jefferson Elementary School—despite spending less per student ($18,550 vs. $23,075 at Thomas Jefferson). The school also shows a notable strength in serving its African American students, ranking in the 80th percentile statewide for this group in the 2024-2025 school year, a remarkable achievement compared to its overall ranking. Additionally, Jane Addams has a chronic absenteeism rate of 32.8%, which is significantly lower than the district average of 44.3% and far below nearby charter schools like Detroit Leadership Academy K8 (70.5%) and WashingtonParks Academy (65.5%).

There are encouraging signs in reading, with English Language Arts proficiency improving as students move up—from 20.5% in 3rd grade to 34.9% in 5th grade—the highest in the district. However, math remains a persistent challenge, with proficiency rates declining across grade levels in recent years. For parents, this means Jane Addams offers a stable, community-focused environment where kids show up consistently and reading skills grow over time, but the school is still working to strengthen math instruction and improve outcomes for all student groups.
