Summary

Breckenridge MiddleHigh School is a small, combined middle and high school serving 310 students in grades 6-12 in the rural community of Breckenridge, MI, where 58% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

If you're looking at this school, the most encouraging news is that kids stay and graduate. The school reports a 0.0% dropout rate and a 93.1% graduation rate—both better than nearby Shepherd High School (2.5% dropout) and Merrill High School (4.6% dropout). Attendance has also improved dramatically, with chronic absenteeism dropping from 40% to 19.1% over the past few years—now better than the state average. That's a positive sign that students are engaged and showing up.

However, academics are a mixed bag. The school's overall rating has bounced around—from a 1-star rating in the early 2020s to a 4-star jump in 2023-24, then back down to 2 stars recently. Math is the biggest concern: proficiency rates are roughly half the state average across grades (e.g., 14% in 11th-grade SAT math vs. 26.5% statewide). English and science are more balanced, with 10th-grade ELA actually above the state average. There's also a notable gender gap—boys recently outperformed girls by 34 percentile points, though that flipped just a couple years ago. The school spends more per student ($14,766) than higher-performing neighbors like Hemlock High School ($12,960), yet test scores don't reflect that extra investment. For a small school, one class can swing the numbers significantly, so it's worth asking about your child's specific grade level and teachers when you visit.
