Summary:
Fulton Schools district in Michigan has only one middle school, Fulton Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 132 students. While the school's performance has been declining in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 596 out of 883 Michigan middle schools in 2022-2023 to 425 out of 890 in 2024-2025, it continues to face challenges in academic achievement.
Fulton Middle School's proficiency rates on state assessments, such as M-Step and PSAT, are generally below the state averages, ranging from 26.8% to 41.7% across different subjects and grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math were lower than the Fulton Schools district and state averages. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 44.7% in 2023-2024, which may indicate socioeconomic challenges that could be impacting student performance.
Despite the higher per-student spending of $13,197 in 2023-2024, which is above the state average, and a lower student-teacher ratio of 17:1, Fulton Middle School's academic performance remains below state averages. This suggests that simply increasing resources may not be the sole solution, and the school may need to focus on targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes.
