Summary

Cass City Junior and Senior High School serves 418 students in grades 7-12 within the highly rated Cass City Public Schools district, located in the small, rural community of Cass City, Michigan.

This school stands out for its exceptional student success and engagement. The graduation rate is a remarkable 94.8%, far exceeding the state average of 84.0%, and the school reported a 0.0% dropout rate—a figure dramatically lower than nearby schools like UnionvilleSebewaing MiddleHigh School (84.0% graduation) and Laker High School (91.9% graduation). Students are clearly engaged, with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 15.3%—roughly half the state average and much lower than peers like Caro High School (29.2%). Academically, the school shines brightest in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates well above state averages at every grade level. For example, 7th-grade ELA proficiency is 62.1% versus 38.4% statewide, and 11th-grade SAT ELA scores (58.6%) outpace both the state (52.1%) and nearby Laker High School (40.2%). The school also demonstrates a strong commitment to supporting all learners, as students from low socio-economic backgrounds ranked in the 74th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a dramatic jump from the 41st percentile just a year earlier.

While the overall picture is very positive, there are areas for growth. Math and science proficiency is strong in middle school (e.g., 8th-grade science at 46.7% vs. 35.2% statewide) but dips by 11th grade, where SAT math (21.4%) and science (31.4%) fall below state averages. Additionally, a persistent gender gap exists, with female students ranking in the 77th percentile statewide compared to 65th for males. Despite these challenges, the school's trajectory is clearly upward—climbing from the 59th percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 76th percentile in 2025-2026—making it a standout choice for families seeking a supportive, high-achieving environment.
