White Cloud Public Schools

The White Cloud Public Schools district in Michigan consists of three schools: White Cloud Elementary School, White Cloud High School, and White Cloud Junior High School. While the elementary school has the highest proficiency rates, all three schools are performing below the state average on academic measures.

The elementary school has the strongest academic performance, with 52.7% of 5th graders proficient or better in ELA and 45.6% proficient or better in Math. However, these rates are still below the state averages. The middle school and high school have very low proficiency rates, with the middle school having only 17.3% of 6th graders proficient in ELA and 10.7% proficient in Math, and the high school having only 36% of 11th graders proficient in Evidence-Based Reading and Writing on the SAT.

Across the district, there are several areas of concern, including high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 29.5%, and high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 69.64% at the high school to 85.04% at the elementary school. The high school also has a relatively low four-year graduation rate of 82.8% and a high dropout rate of 7.6%. Overall, the data suggests that the White Cloud Public Schools district is facing significant challenges in terms of academic performance, student engagement, and economic disadvantage among its student population.
