Summary

Eaton Rapids High School is a mid-sized public high school in Eaton Rapids, MI, serving 637 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Eaton Rapids Public Schools district.

This school truly shines when it comes to keeping students on track. The graduation rate is an exceptional 96.9%, far above the state average of 84.0%, and the dropout rate is a perfect 0.0%. That means nearly every student who starts at Eaton Rapids finishes with a diploma. The school has also made great strides in getting kids to show up, cutting its chronic absenteeism rate from a post-pandemic high of 36.0% down to just 16.7%—better than both the state and its own district average. Academically, students perform particularly well in social studies, with 56.7% of 11th graders proficient on the M-Step, which is 13.5 points above the state average. The school is also notably effective with its low-income students, ranking in the 73rd percentile statewide for that group, and has shown remarkable recent improvement with its Hispanic students, who now rank in the 82nd percentile.

However, there is one clear area of concern: math. Only 22% of 11th graders are proficient on the SAT math section, which is below the state average of 26.5% and significantly lower than nearby Leslie High School (34.4%) and Mason High School (35.5%). This math gap is consistent across grade levels and stands in stark contrast to the school's strong reading and writing scores. When compared to its neighbors, Eaton Rapids outperforms larger schools like Holt Senior High School and Charlotte Senior High School in overall state ranking and graduation rate, though it trails Mason. The school is also a cost-efficiency standout, spending $13,884 per student—less than Mason, Holt, and Potterville High School—while achieving better or comparable outcomes. For parents, this is a school that clearly prioritizes student success and retention, with a strong humanities focus, but one where math support may be worth investigating.
