Ypsilanti Community Schools

Summary:

The Ypsilanti Community Schools district in Michigan consists of 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 501 out of 613 in Michigan and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

A few schools within the district stand out in performance. Ypsilanti International Elementary School is ranked 675 out of 1,488 Michigan elementary schools and has a 3-star rating, significantly outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency. Washtenaw International Middle Academy is ranked 187 out of 890 Michigan middle schools with a 4-star rating, outperforming the district and state averages across multiple subjects. In contrast, Ypsilanti STEMM Middle College is ranked 454 out of 739 Michigan high schools with a 2-star rating, but still outperforms the district and state in certain areas.

However, the district as a whole faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and wide disparities in funding and resources across schools. While the success of a few schools demonstrates the potential for improvement, targeted interventions and equitable resource allocation will be crucial to addressing the underlying factors and driving academic progress across the Ypsilanti Community Schools district.
