Summary

Coopersville Middle School, part of the Coopersville Area Public School District, serves 584 students in grades 6-8 and has earned a 4-star rating from the state for five consecutive years, placing it in the 84th percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its strong academics across the board. In the most recent school year, 7th-grade English proficiency hit 53.2% compared to the state average of 38.4%, and 8th-grade science proficiency reached 53.3% versus the state's 39.2%. Students also perform well on the 8th-grade PSAT, with 74.2% proficient in ELA. What makes these results particularly impressive is that Coopersville achieves them while serving a higher percentage of students eligible for free/reduced lunch (39.9%) than nearby high-achieving schools like Jenison Junior High School (23.87%) or Baldwin Street Middle School (14.59%). In fact, Coopersville's ranking for students from low socio-economic backgrounds is in the 86th percentile statewide—even higher than its overall ranking—demonstrating a remarkable ability to close achievement gaps. The school also excels in 8th-grade social studies, with 63.6% proficiency, and keeps chronic absenteeism low at 15.1%, far better than the state average of 27.9% and many neighboring schools.

Coopersville has shown a strong rebound since the pandemic, climbing from a 3-star rating in 2020-2021 back to its current 4-star status. The school also does more with less, spending $15,082 per student—below the state average and less than nearby Mill Creek Middle School ($16,469) or Westwood Middle School ($27,247). While the school's support for special education students has improved dramatically, there remains an opportunity to apply its successful strategies to ensure equitable outcomes for all student groups. Overall, this is a highly effective school that delivers excellent results for a diverse student body.
