Summary

Corunna High School in Corunna, MI, serves 610 students in grades 8 through 12 within the Corunna Public Schools district, a mid-sized school in a small-town setting that has earned a 2-star rating from the state.

The most striking thing about Corunna High School is its success at keeping students on track to graduate. With a 95.0% graduation rate—well above the state average of 84.0%—and a dropout rate of just 3.2% (less than half the state's 7.1%), the school clearly excels at student retention. This is a significant strength when compared to nearby Byron Area High School, which has a 75.0% graduation rate. The school has also made impressive strides in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 36.0% in 2021-2022 to 20.4% in 2024-2025—now well below the state average of 27.9%. However, academic proficiency on standardized tests tells a different story. Only 13.2% of 11th graders met proficiency standards in math on the SAT, roughly half the state average of 26.5%, and 8th-grade science proficiency (25.5%) also trails the state (39.2%).

When compared to its closest neighbor, Owosso High School (just over 3 miles away), Corunna outperforms in graduation rate (95.0% vs. 92.5%) and has lower chronic absenteeism (20.4% vs. 30.5%), but Owosso edges ahead in most academic subjects. Meanwhile, New Lothrop High School (11.6 miles away) serves as a high-performing benchmark with SAT reading proficiency of 72.7% compared to Corunna's 45%, and a 98.8% graduation rate. Corunna's student-teacher ratio of 17.8 is slightly higher than most area schools, and its per-student spending of $15,612 sits in the mid-to-upper range locally. The school's overall state ranking has remained steady in the 40th-46th percentile over the past four years, suggesting that while students are staying in school and showing up, academic achievement in math and science remains the key area for growth.

What people are saying
by a student
Wednesday, May 2, 2012

Open Quote Some of the teachers don't know what there doing and some are not educated in the subject taught. There are currently 3 principles as of the 2011-2012 school year. One of those principles does not have the required education to be an administrator. This does not make sense to me and feel as if it is a waste of the schools money. When the juniors were taking the ACT of 2011-2012, the whole school was in session. There was about 10 substitutes in the building at the time. Again I feel as if this was a waste of money because from previous years, school was not in session during the testing day. I would like for people the realize what is going on at this school and to help the school save money. I cant just sit here and watch some of the more educated teachers leave from the school not having enough money to have them stay. Close Quote
