High Schools in West Iron County Public Schools

The West Iron County Public Schools district is home to a single high school, West Iron County Middle High School, which serves students in grades 6-12. The school's performance has been mixed, with fluctuating statewide rankings and uneven academic achievement across different subject areas and grade levels.

West Iron County Middle High School has a statewide ranking that has improved in recent years, going from 379 out of 735 Michigan high schools in 2022-2023 to a projected ranking of 233 out of 739 in 2024-2025. However, the school's performance on standardized tests is varied, with some areas exceeding the state average while others fall below. The school's four-year graduation rate of 82.8% is also lower than the state average.

The school faces challenges related to its student population, with 60.73% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student body. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance and graduation rates suggest that the district and school leadership may need to focus on targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes and ensure the school's long-term success.
