Summary

Clio Intermediate School in Clio, MI, serves 424 students in 4th and 5th grades within the Clio Area School District, acting as a bridge between primary and upper-grade levels in a community where nearly 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has a fascinating mix of strengths and challenges. On one hand, it delivers exceptional results for its Hispanic students, who ranked in the 86th percentile statewide in the most recent year—a consistent pattern of success that far exceeds the school's overall average. On the other hand, there's a significant gender gap: boys consistently score above the state average (56th-63rd percentile), while girls lag notably behind (26th-41st percentile). Academically, the school shines in English Language Arts, with 5th-grade proficiency at 56.1% versus the state's 43.8%, but struggles in math, where only about 30% of 4th graders and 27% of 5th graders meet state standards. Perhaps most concerning is the chronic absenteeism rate of 32.7%—worse than both the district (26.9%) and state (27.9%) averages—which likely holds the school back from reaching higher rankings.

Despite these hurdles, Clio Intermediate stands out as a relative academic anchor in its region. Its 5th-grade ELA scores are nearly three times higher than nearby Montague Elementary School (19.8%) and Dailey Elementary School (18.2%), and it even outperforms the more affluent Elms Elementary School in Flushing in 5th-grade reading. The school also appears to accelerate learning for students arriving from Clio Elementary, where 3rd-grade ELA proficiency was just 27.2%—those same students jumped to 44% proficiency as 4th graders at Clio Intermediate. However, with per-student spending around $13,600 and a student-teacher ratio of 20.5, the school operates with fewer resources than many nearby counterparts, which may limit its ability to tackle math instruction gaps and absenteeism head-on.
