Summary

Coopersville High School serves approximately 860 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Coopersville Area Public School District, located in a moderate-income community in Coopersville, MI, where about one-third of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The school's signature strength is its exceptional graduation rate of 97.4%—far above the state average of 84.0%—paired with a dropout rate of just 1.0% and a chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8% that is nearly half the state's 27.9%. This strong attendance culture and student support system help Coopersville achieve results that are particularly impressive given its student demographics. Academically, the school consistently outperforms state averages in science (44.6% proficient vs. 35.2% statewide) and social studies, though performance in SAT math (30.6% proficient) and reading (51.8% proficient) is more middle-of-the-pack. When compared to nearby schools, Coopersville significantly outperforms Ravenna High School, which serves a similar economic demographic but posts lower scores across all subjects and has nearly double the chronic absenteeism rate. However, more affluent neighbors like Spring Lake High School and Jenison High School achieve higher academic proficiency, though Coopersville's graduation rate remains remarkably close to Spring Lake's 100% despite serving nearly double the percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Families should be aware that Coopersville's state ranking has been volatile, swinging from 112th in 2024-2025 to 294th the prior year, which suggests performance can vary with each incoming class. The school also faces an urgent equity challenge: performance among Hispanic students has declined dramatically over two years, dropping from the 80th percentile statewide to the 27th percentile. Per-student spending has risen to $15,330, comparable to higher-performing neighbors, suggesting room for improved academic returns. Still, for parents prioritizing a school where students show up, stay engaged, and graduate at exceptionally high rates, Coopersville delivers a solid, supportive environment that outperforms what its demographics would predict.

Open Quote The teachers often give homework with the internet being required access and complete the worksheets. Many people in Coopersville don't have access to the internet as with the assignments having so many vague questions without the use of any books included the students have to search the answers using the Google Search Engine, the same applies to E2020. They're not completing the work or putting effort into their homework. I don't even question why my child has a below average SAT score. Close Quote
