About Silver Springs Elementary School
Silver Springs Elementary earns a composite score of 9.1/10 — an Exceptional rating — and ranks #68 out of 3,190 public schools in Michigan. That puts it ahead of 98% of Michigan's public schools, a distinction that reflects consistent performance across two distinct measures rather than one favorable result. The growth score of 9.5/10 is the school's strongest number.
Growth tracks how much students advance relative to peers who started at the same academic level, making it a harder metric to inflate through neighborhood demographics. Paired with an academic score of 8.9/10, the school performs at a high level on both dimensions — a combination that tells a fuller story than standardized test results alone. Silver Springs serves 350 students in kindergarten through fifth grade as a regular public school in Northville, Michigan.
The 16.7:1 student-teacher ratio keeps class sizes manageable. Within Northville, the school ranks second among ten public schools, and places #60 out of 1,602 elementary schools statewide — a standing that few Michigan elementary schools match.
