Summary

Rodgers Elementary School in Saint Clair Shores, MI, serves 534 students from Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Lake Shore Public Schools (Macomb) district. The school currently holds a 2-star rating, ranking in the 41st percentile statewide, which reflects a partial recovery from pandemic-era lows but still below its pre-2020 performance.

One of the most encouraging findings is the school's strength in 5th grade. In the most recent testing year, 5th graders at Rodgers outperformed both district and state averages in English Language Arts (46.7% proficient), Math (42.7%), and Science (44%). This suggests that by the time students reach 5th grade, the school's instructional strategies are having a meaningful impact. However, this strength does not extend to earlier grades. The most significant concern is 4th-grade Math, where only 12.2% of students are proficient—a gap of more than 27 percentage points compared to the state average. This has been a persistent challenge for several years. Additionally, there is a notable gender disparity: the school ranks in the 47th percentile for male students but only the 24th percentile for female students, indicating that girls may need additional support.

When comparing Rodgers to nearby schools, a clear pattern emerges. Same-district peers like Masonic Heights Elementary School and Violet Elementary School perform in a similar range, while schools in the neighboring Lakeview Public Schools (Macomb) district—such as Ardmore Elementary School (70th percentile) and Princeton Elementary School (67th percentile)—consistently outperform Rodgers. Chronic absenteeism at Rodgers (28.2%) is close to the state average but much higher than at these higher-performing Lakeview schools. On a positive note, the school has shown significant improvement in serving its low-income students, jumping from the 24th to the 52nd percentile in recent years, and male students have also made gains. While Rodgers spends more per student ($15,156) than some higher-performing neighbors, the results suggest that resource allocation and instructional effectiveness remain areas for continued focus.
