Summary:
The Grand Haven Area Public Schools district in Michigan consists of 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools consistently ranking among the top in the state.
Two elementary schools, Peach Plains School and Rosy Mound School, are particularly impressive, with over 70% of their students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Math. The district's middle school, Lakeshore Middle School, also ranks highly, with over 60% of students proficient or better in core subjects. At the high school level, Grand Haven High School stands out, ranking 40th out of 735 Michigan high schools and boasting above-average test scores and a relatively low dropout rate.
While the district overall performs well, the data also reveals some areas for improvement, such as the 29.5% chronic absenteeism rate across all schools and the lower performance of the district's alternative school, Grand Haven Cyber School. Additionally, the varying free and reduced-price lunch rates across the schools suggest potential socioeconomic disparities within the district, which could be an area for further analysis and targeted interventions to ensure equitable access to resources and opportunities for all students.
