Summary

Constantine Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Constantine Public School District in Constantine, Michigan. The school has 273 students and a student-teacher ratio of 16.5. While the district is ranked 389 out of 613 in Michigan and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Constantine Middle School faces several challenges that warrant attention.

One key concern is the school's consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 41.4% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates in ELA and Math for 6th and 7th grades around 20-34%, compared to the state averages of 38-39%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Special Education students performing much lower than their White and female counterparts.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Cassopolis Middle School and Marcellus Middle School, Constantine Middle School performs significantly worse on test scores and other key metrics. For example, Marcellus Middle School's proficiency rates in ELA and Math are nearly double those of Constantine Middle School. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, the academic outcomes do not seem to reflect the level of investment, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources. Addressing these challenges and improving equity for all students will be crucial for the school's future success.
