Summary:

The Adrian Public Schools district in Michigan consists of 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one traditional and one virtual). The district as a whole is ranked 490 out of 613 districts in Michigan and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Lincoln Elementary School has relatively strong test scores compared to the district and state averages, particularly in math and science, and a lower chronic absenteeism rate. Meanwhile, Adrian Community High School, the district's virtual high school, has higher test scores and a higher 4-year graduation rate than the traditional Adrian High School.

However, the district and its schools generally perform below state averages on academic assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 10-35% across grade levels and subject areas. The schools also have high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 61-92%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Chronic absenteeism is a significant issue, with all schools in the district having a rate of 29.5%, which is much higher than the state average.
