Best Public Schools in Fort Gratiot, MI


Summary:

The city of Fort Gratiot, Michigan is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Keewahdin Elementary and Edison Elementary) and 1 middle school (Fort Gratiot Middle School), all part of the Port Huron Area School District.

Based on the data, Edison Elementary appears to be the standout school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 25% of Michigan elementary schools and outperforming district and state averages on standardized tests. In contrast, Keewahdin Elementary has struggled more academically, ranking in the bottom half of Michigan elementary schools. The middle school, Fort Gratiot, falls somewhere in the middle, with test scores generally above the district average but below the state average.

All 3 schools face high chronic absenteeism rates around 29-30%, well above the state average, which could be an area of concern. Additionally, the schools vary significantly in their student socioeconomic status, with Edison Elementary having a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 35.1% compared to 58.2% at Keewahdin Elementary. This suggests factors beyond just district-level policies and resources may be driving the observed performance differences between the schools.
