Summary:
Corunna Public Schools is served by a single high school, Corunna High School, which enrolls 610 students in grades 8 through 12 in a small-town Michigan setting.
For parents, the standout story here is a school that does an excellent job getting students to graduation but struggles with core academic mastery, especially in math. Corunna High School posts a 95% graduation rate—11 points above the state average—and a low 3.2% dropout rate. That’s a clear strength. However, only 13.2% of 11th graders are proficient in SAT math, roughly half the state rate, and 9th-grade PSAT math proficiency (23.6%) also trails the state (33.5%). The school’s overall state ranking sits in the mid-400s out of about 800 schools, reflecting this mixed profile. English and reading are relative bright spots: 8th and 9th graders outperform state averages in ELA on the PSAT, and 11th-grade SAT reading/writing proficiency (45%) is closer to the state mark (52.1%). Science and social studies scores on the M-Step are below average across all grades.
One encouraging sign is in 8th-grade math, where proficiency jumped from 31% to 39.3% in one year—suggesting recent instructional changes may be taking hold in lower grades. Still, chronic absenteeism affects 1 in 5 students (20.4%), which is better than the state’s 27.9% but remains a concern. With per-student spending of $15,612 and a student-teacher ratio of 17.8, the school appears to invest heavily in support services that keep kids on track to graduate, but the low math scores indicate a need for stronger academic intervention. Parents should view this school as a safe, supportive environment that excels at retention, but they may want to supplement math learning at home or seek additional help to ensure college and career readiness.
