Summary:
The city of Davison, Michigan is home to a diverse school district with 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district serves a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds, as evidenced by the varying free/reduced lunch rates across the schools.
Several schools in the Davison Community Schools district stand out for their exceptional performance. Hill Elementary School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Michigan, with exceptional test scores and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. At the secondary level, Davison High School and Davison Middle School also stand out, ranking in the top 225 and 185 schools in the state, respectively, and maintaining 4-star ratings.
While the district overall performs well, with high graduation rates and above-average test scores, there are some areas of concern, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate across all schools. The Davison Alternative Education program also has lower test scores compared to the district and state averages, though it maintains a similar graduation rate to the high school. The district may want to investigate the causes of the high absenteeism rate and continue to support its high-performing schools while also addressing the needs of its alternative education program.
