Summary:
The Jefferson High School is the sole high school serving the Jefferson Schools (Monroe) district in Michigan. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 302 out of 743 schools in 2023-2024 to 504 out of 739 schools in 2024-2025, and its rating varying between 2 and 3 stars out of 5.
Academically, Jefferson High School faces some challenges, with proficiency rates below the state averages in several subject areas, particularly M-Step/Social Studies and SAT/Mathematics. However, the school's proficiency rate in SAT/Evidence-Based Reading and Writing was closer to the state average. The school's graduation rate of 82.8% in 2023-2024 and a dropout rate of 7.6% suggest room for improvement in student outcomes.
Socioeconomic factors may play a role, as over 50% of students at Jefferson High School were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. The school's relatively high spending per student and student-teacher ratio of 20.3 indicate a focus on resource allocation, but the academic performance data suggests these resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes. Overall, the data suggests that Jefferson High School is facing performance and academic challenges that may require targeted interventions and further investigation to address.
