STEM ACADEMY

STEM Academy is a public elementary school that is part of the Comstock Public Schools school district, located in Kalamazoo, MI with about 256 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. With about 13 teachers, STEM Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
