Summary:
Allegan Public Schools, a district in Michigan, has one middle school, LE White Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has some positive attributes, it appears to be a relatively low-performing school within the district, with several areas of concern that may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
Academically, LE White Middle School's proficiency rates in M-Step English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies are generally below the state averages, with the exception of its PSAT English Language Arts proficiency rate, which is above the state average. The school's PSAT Math proficiency rate is also below the state average. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% for the 2023-2024 school year, which may be contributing to its academic challenges.
Socioeconomically, LE White Middle School has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 60.55%, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families. The school's per-student spending is $18,116 for the 2023-2024 school year, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.2. However, the school's performance, as measured by its statewide SchoolDigger ranking, has declined over the past three years, from a rank of 393 out of 897 Michigan middle schools in 2023-2024 to a rank of 454 out of 890 in 2024-2025.
