Summary:
The Star International Academy district in Michigan operates two schools: an alternative high school and an elementary school. The alternative high school, Star International Academy, stands out as the stronger performer in the district, with a higher four-year graduation rate of 82.8% and slightly better test scores compared to the elementary school.
While both schools struggle with low test scores compared to state averages, the alternative high school appears to have more resources, spending $12,667 per student compared to $9,815 per student at the elementary school. Additionally, the alternative high school has a slightly lower student-teacher ratio of 18.1, compared to 18.8 at the elementary school. However, both schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population.
Overall, the Star International Academy district is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, suggesting room for improvement in overall school quality and performance. The alternative high school may be the stronger option within the district, but both schools face challenges in academic achievement that will require targeted interventions and support to address.
