Summary:
Madison School District (Lenawee) in Michigan has one middle school, Madison Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school's performance has been relatively average compared to other middle schools in the state, with some areas of strength and others that need improvement.
Madison Middle School has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and its statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 301 out of 897 Michigan middle schools in 2023-2024 to 330 out of 890 in 2024-2025. The school's proficiency rates in M-Step/English Language Arts, M-Step/Math, M-Step/Science, and M-Step/Social Studies are generally lower than the state and district averages, with some exceptions in 7th and 8th grade. However, the school's PSAT proficiency rates in English Language Arts are higher than the state average, while its PSAT Math proficiency rates are lower.
One area of concern for Madison Middle School is its relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which may be impacting student performance. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (62.4%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Despite the higher per-student spending and relatively small class sizes, the school's performance is still lagging in some areas, suggesting that simply increasing resources may not be the sole solution to improving outcomes.
