Summary

EB Holman Elementary School is a small, rural K-8 school in Atlantic Mine, MI, serving 183 students within the single-building Stanton Township Public Schools district.

What truly sets EB Holman apart is its remarkable success with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Despite a district-wide poverty rate of 56% (students receiving free or reduced lunch), the school ranked in the 98th percentile statewide for this subgroup in 2024-2025—an exceptional achievement that nearby schools like Houghton Elementary School, which serves a much more affluent population, do not replicate to the same degree. The school also boasts a chronic absenteeism rate of just 12-13%, less than half the state average, indicating strong family engagement. All of this is accomplished while spending less per student ($12,142) than every comparable school in the area, including South Range Elementary School ($16,559) and CLK Elementary School ($13,881).

However, the data reveals some areas of concern. Most notably, there is a significant gender achievement gap—in 2023-2024, female students ranked in the 89th percentile while male students ranked in the 29th percentile. While this gap narrowed the following year, it remains a challenge. Academically, math is a clear strength, particularly in middle school, where 6th and 7th-grade proficiency rates (61.5% and 55%) far exceed state averages, and 8th-grade PSAT math proficiency hit 52.9% versus the state's 30.4%. English Language Arts performance is more inconsistent, with 5th-grade proficiency (35%) falling below the state average. Because grade-level cohorts are so small, test scores can swing dramatically from year to year—4th-grade math jumped from 13.6% to 48% proficiency between 2024 and 2025—so it's important to view single-year results with some caution. Overall, EB Holman is a highly efficient school that excels at supporting its most vulnerable students, with its primary opportunities for growth lying in closing the gender gap and stabilizing ELA scores.
