Elementary Schools in Cheboygan Area Schools

Summary:

The Cheboygan Area Schools district in Michigan is home to two elementary schools: Cheboygan Intermediate School and East Elementary School. Both schools serve students from kindergarten through sixth grade and provide a solid educational foundation for the local community.

Cheboygan Intermediate School stands out as a high-performing institution, with consistent improvements in its statewide ranking and test scores that exceed the district and state averages. The school's academic excellence is reflected in its move from the 526th position out of 1,470 Michigan elementary schools in 2022-2023 to the 386th position out of 1,488 schools in 2024-2025. In contrast, East Elementary School serves a more economically disadvantaged student population, with a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 76.36%, compared to Cheboygan Intermediate School's 71.7%.

Both schools face the challenge of high chronic absenteeism rates, with both Cheboygan Intermediate School and East Elementary School reporting a 29.5% chronic absenteeism rate for the 2023-2024 school year. This is an area of concern that the Cheboygan Area Schools district should address to ensure all students have the opportunity to thrive academically.
