EXCELLENT SCHOOLS D E T R O I T

Find the Best School

for Your Child

february 2012

Excellent Schools Detroit (ESD) is made up of a broad and diverse cross-section of

Detroit’s education, government, community, parent, and philanthropic leaders who

have developed a citywide education plan to help ensure that all Detroit children are

in an excellent school by 2020.

The plan requires the implementation of breakthrough strategies in public will

building, talent development, new school creation, accountability, and early

childhood to dramatically improve student achievement in schools of all governance

models: traditional public, public charter, and private.

Members of the Excellent Schools Detroit coalition include Cornerstone Schools,

New Paradigm for Education, Detroit Public Schools, Detroit Regional Chamber,

McGregor Fund, Michigan Future, New Detroit, The Skillman Foundation, United

Way for Southeastern Michigan, and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Other

signatories included the City of Detroit, the Kresge Foundation, New Urban

Learning, and Think Detroit PAL.

The coalition also partners or will partner with many other organizations, including

Black Family Development, Inc.; City Year; Data Driven Detroit; Detroit Federation of

Teachers; NAACP; Teach for America; Wayne State University; and others.

Copies of our comprehensive reform plan and related materials are available at

www.excellentschoolsdetroit.org.

We gratefully acknowledge the research assistance of Bettie Landauer-Menchik

at the MSU Good Schools Resource Center. Editorial and design by KSA-Plus

Communications. Data Driven Detroit produced the maps and helped with

the analysis.

How We Ranked the Schools 29

More CoMplete report Card to CoMeWe understand that parents look at more than test scores and graduation rates when choosing

a school for their child. later this spring, we will publish a much more complete report

card that looks at items such as whether the school has a safe and supportive environment,

quality math and reading instruction, effective principals, dedicated teachers, and strong family

outreach. In the meantime, and even with the more complete report card, we think it’s very

important that parents focus on the most important indicator of all: student performance.

2 Excellent Schools Detroit

How to Use This Report

We are publishing this third annual report card to help detroit parents better understand how well schools in the metro area are performing.

Our ultimate goal is for every Detroit student to be attending an excellent school by 2020. That means:

90% of detroit students graduate from high school,

90% of them go on to college or quality career training, and

90% of them are ready to succeed in college without having to retake courses they should have had in high school.

This report card ranks all Detroit public schools and public charter schools as

well as some private schools. Plus, we’ve included suburban schools where at

least 30% of the students are from Detroit. New this year, we’ve organized the

schools by geography to help parents find a school close to where they live

or work. and we’re using the state’s new, much higher standards for school

quality. Here’s how to use the maps and tables in this report card:

1. If you kNoW you are lookINg for a sChool rIght NoW, try to

eNroll IN oNe of the sChools oN page 4. These are the highest-performing

schools serving large numbers of Detroit students. Even if they are full, get on the

waitlist!

2. fINd your sChool aNd CoMpare It to others. The map overview on page

5 divides the city into seven areas, plus the suburbs. The indices starting on page

22 list all schools in the area alphabetically. Find your school and see if it performs

MeasurINg studeNt suCCessHow well students do on standardized tests is not the only way to measure a

school, but we believe it is the most important. If a student is not learning the

basics — English and math — it will be difficult for him or her to succeed in the

higher grades … or graduate and end up on a path to college or a good career.

Further, in a school where students are really learning, you can be confident

that other good things are happening: Students are safe, they’re interested,

and adults are working together to provide the necessary support.


above the state average in reading and math or, for high schools, see if the school

performs above the state average on the ACT college admissions test, which all 11th

graders take. Our website (www.excellentschoolsdetroit.org) has many more details

about these schools, including contact information, grades served, students scoring

advanced on the state tests, and other resources.

3. seleCt a sChool. If there are schools that rank higher than the one your

child attends, consider enrolling your child there. Find out about enrollment or

application requirements. Most public schools — including most schools in the

Detroit Public Schools (DPS) system, suburban public schools, and public charter

schools — are open enrollment, which means that any student can go. However,

many require an application or other paperwork for students to enroll. Some

schools also require students to take an exam before being accepted. We have

identified these “special admissions” schools in the listings (SA). Each school has

its own deadlines and requirements, so you’ll need to contact each school directly.

Don’t give up hope. Many of the better schools may have waiting lists, but it’s

definitely worth contacting them. Openings may still be available up until the start

of the school year.

Why are thIs year’s sCores so MuCh loWer?The percentages of students meeting or exceeding state standards in

reading and math have declined significantly since we published the

2011 scorecard, especially in math. It’s not that schools have gotten

significantly worse. It’s because in fall 2011 Michigan set new, much

higher benchmarks for passing the state test.

The goal is to more accurately reflect what it will take for Michigan high

school graduates to succeed in college without needing remedial courses

… and then to figure out what it will take for students in the lower grades

to be on track for high school.

The changes are dramatic. The percentage of Michigan students proficient

in 8th grade math went from 78% to 29%, for example. “We have to be

honest with ourselves about where we are in preparing our kids for the

reality of today’s global economy,” said State Superintendent of Public

Instruction Mike Flanagan. “These updated scores, while they may be

difficult to accept, will help lead Michigan forward. Just looking good is

not better than being good.”


Area Schools with the Best Results

Start by looking at this group of 24 schools. They have the metro area’s best reading

and math scores over the past three years and are listed in order by total score.

The elementary and middle schools have met or exceeded the state averages during

this period, based on their reading and math scores on the Michigan Educational

Assessment Program (MEAP) test.

The high schools have composite scores of 16.5 on the ACT, the college admissions test.

Our list includes schools inside the city … and the inner suburbs. These include

traditional public schools, public charters, and private schools.

We’re not saying these are the only schools that can meet your child’s needs. But they’re

a great starting place.

at each school level, we used publicly reported data on student achievement.

We focus specifically on measures that show whether students are ready to move on to

the next level — that is, if:

5th graders are ready for middle school,

8th graders are ready for high school, and

high school students are ready for college.

Wherever possible, the rankings are based on three-year averages so that we avoid

the major score changes (up and down) that sometimes occur from year to year. In

cases where we have only one or two years of data, we noted that.

At each level, we ranked schools from top to bottom. In 5th and 8th grades for each

school, we combined a school’s scores from 2009, 2010, and 2011 on two indicators: the

percentage of students meeting or exceeding state standards in reading and math on the

Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP). This report card uses the state’s new,

higher thresholds for meeting standards. These data were compiled from the downloadable

data section of the Michigan Department of Education’s (MDE) MEAP website.

In high school, we used the school’s ACT composite scores from 2009, 2010, and

2011, which tend to predict if a student is ready for college work without needing

to take remedial courses. We also report the school’s four-year graduation rates (a

necessary step for college or a career). The ACT data were compiled from the data

section of MDE’s Michigan Merit Examination (MME) website.The MDE reported

schoolwide ACT scores reflect only those ACT scores earned by students (primarily 11th

graders only) during the standard administration of the MME (of which ACT is a part).

Schoolwide scores directly from ACT reflect the scores of students taken during any

administration, including retests or tests taken by 12th graders, etc. Graduation data

came from MDE’s Center for Educational Performance and Information.

We did not rank schools where fewer than 20 students took the tests or schools

with less than two years of data. For private schools, we ranked only those whose

students took the state MEAP or ACT tests.

For suburban schools, we included schools where Detroit students account for at least

30% of the enrollment.

We did not include information on schools that have closed in the past year.

one more important note: Many top-performing Detroit public schools are special

admissions schools, which select students based on their exam scores (such as Cass

Technical and Renaissance) or applications (such as Bates Academy and the Foreign

Language Immersion School). We have noted these schools in our listings.
