Summary

Blended Learning Academies Credit Recovery High School is a small, specialized public high school in Lansing, MI, serving 159 students in grades 9-12 with a mission to help students who have fallen behind on credits earn their diplomas through a flexible, blended learning format.

This school faces profound challenges that set it apart from nearly every other high school in the Lansing area. The most striking concern is attendance: a staggering 92.2% of students are chronically absent, meaning they miss 10% or more of the school year. This is more than three times the state average (27.9%) and far exceeds even JW Sexton High School, which serves a similarly high-poverty population but has a chronic absenteeism rate of 63.2%. Not surprisingly, the 4-year graduation rate sits at just 33.3%, compared to the state average of 84.0% and rates above 88% at nearby traditional schools like East Lansing High School and DeWitt High School. The school also has an exceptionally high student-teacher ratio of 33.8:1, which is counterintuitive for a credit recovery program that should provide intensive individualized support.

There are some nuances worth noting. When students are present and engaged enough to take state assessments, their scores are not the lowest in the area—in fact, SAT reading/writing proficiency (36.8%) exceeds that of JW Sexton (21.4%) and Waverly Senior High School (30.7%). A direct comparison with Great Lakes Learning Academy Middle/High School, another alternative school just 7.5 miles away, is revealing: Great Lakes boasts a 68.6% graduation rate and a 32.7% chronic absenteeism rate, suggesting that different implementation models for blended learning can yield vastly different outcomes. Additionally, the school spends just $9,264 per student—the lowest among all comparison schools—which may indicate under-investment in the counselors, social workers, and smaller class sizes that could help address the severe attendance and completion challenges this student population faces.
