Summary:
The Wolverine Community School District has only one elementary school, Wolverine Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state average, and its overall SchoolDigger rating is only 2 out of 5 stars, indicating that it is not a standout school in the district or the state.
Wolverine Elementary School has a predominantly white student population, with 87.6% of students identifying as white. The school's academic performance is mixed, with some grades performing better than others on the M-Step tests. For example, 5th-grade students scored above the state average in ELA, Math, and Science, but 3rd and 4th-grade students scored below the state average in these subjects. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 38.7%, which may be contributing to its academic challenges.
Despite the school district's higher-than-average spending per student, Wolverine Elementary School's performance is still lagging behind the state averages in many areas. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution, and the school may need to focus on more targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (89.26%) indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may require additional resources and support to address the needs of these students.
