Summary:
The Cass City Public Schools district in Michigan operates two schools: Cass City Elementary and Cass City Junior and Senior High School. The district as a whole is ranked 121st out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 4-star rating.
Cass City Elementary appears to be a standout school, ranking in the top 11% of Michigan elementary schools and maintaining a 4-star rating. The school's test scores significantly exceed state averages, with 65% proficiency in 3rd grade ELA and 76.7% proficiency in 3rd grade math, compared to state averages of 38.9% and 42.7% respectively. In contrast, Cass City Junior and Senior High School has more mixed performance, ranking in the middle of Michigan high schools and with some test scores lagging behind state averages.
While the Cass City Public Schools district spends above the state average per student, this does not appear to be translating to equally strong outcomes at both the elementary and high school levels. The high school faces challenges with a 7.6% dropout rate and 29.5% chronic absenteeism rate, suggesting areas for improvement. Overall, the district's elementary program is a standout, but the secondary program may warrant further attention and intervention to ensure all students are receiving a high-quality education.
