Summary:
The city of Clio, Michigan is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The schools in the Clio Area School District have maintained relatively consistent performance, with most schools earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Among the standout schools in the district, Clio Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top half of Michigan elementary schools, with solid academic performance in 3rd grade ELA and Math. Similarly, Clio Area High School has maintained a 3-star rating and ranks in the top half of Michigan high schools, though its dropout rate of 7.6% is a bit higher than desired.
However, the district as a whole faces some significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 29.5% to 29.5% across all schools, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 50.84% to 71.72%, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage in the district. The variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools also suggests that resources may not be evenly distributed, which could contribute to disparities in performance.
