Summary

Iroquois Middle School in Macomb, MI, is a large public school serving 814 students in grades 6-8 within the Chippewa Valley Schools district, and it has earned a reputation as one of the area's top-performing middle schools.

Iroquois consistently outperforms its district and state averages across nearly all subjects, with a particularly impressive showing in 7th-grade math—53.7% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, compared to 42.4% for the district and just 33.3% statewide. The school also posts strong college-readiness scores, with 80.6% of 8th graders proficient in PSAT English Language Arts and 50% proficient in PSAT math, a rate nearly 17 points above the state average. Its state ranking has climbed steadily from the 64th percentile in 2021-2022 to the 84th percentile (144th out of 896 Michigan middle schools) in 2025-2026. What makes this even more notable is that Iroquois achieves these results while spending less per student ($12,920) than its same-district peers—Algonquin Middle School spends $15,107 and Wyandot Middle School spends $14,958—and with a higher student-teacher ratio of 22:1.

Compared to nearby schools, Iroquois stands out dramatically. While Algonquin ranks in the 57th percentile and Wyandot in the 60th, Iroquois's 84th percentile ranking puts it in a different league. In 7th-grade math, Iroquois's proficiency rate (53.7%) is nearly double Algonquin's (28%) and far exceeds Wyandot's (33.2%). The school also holds its own against top junior highs in the neighboring Utica Community Schools district—its 8th-grade PSAT math proficiency (50%) rivals Malow Junior High School (55.5%) and beats Shelby Junior High School (41.8%) and Bemis Junior High School (45%). Iroquois also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (19%) than its district (23.1%) and all same-district peers, suggesting strong student engagement. While the school excels broadly, it shows particular strength in serving its African American students (ranking in the 91st percentile statewide) and low-income students (83rd percentile), though English Language Learner and special education subgroups present areas for growth.
