Summary

North Farmington High School, located in Farmington Hills, MI, is a large public high school serving 1,157 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Farmington Public School District.

North Farmington is a school with strong student retention—its graduation rate is an impressive 95.7% with a dropout rate of just 0.6%, both far better than state averages. However, the school is currently experiencing a notable academic downturn. Its overall state ranking has slipped to the 65th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year, down from the 79th percentile the year before. The most dramatic decline is in mathematics: 11th-grade SAT math proficiency dropped from 39.7% to just 25.3% in one year, now falling below the state average. This decline is also visible in PSAT scores for 9th and 10th graders, suggesting a broader challenge with math achievement across all grade levels. At the same time, the school is dealing with a chronic absenteeism rate of 29.6%, which exceeds both the state average (27.9%) and its own district average (22.3%). This creates a paradox: students who stay are highly successful, but a significant portion of the student body is regularly disengaged.

Perhaps the most striking comparison is with the district's other main high school, Farmington High School, which has improved to the 85th percentile in the same year. Farmington High now outperforms North Farmington in nearly every academic metric, including SAT Reading/Writing (67.8% vs. 57.6%), SAT Math (40.5% vs. 25.3%), and Science (47.2% vs. 37.7%)—a reversal from the previous year when North Farmington led in several subjects. Notably, North Farmington spends more per student ($19,027) than Farmington High ($16,853) and nearby West Bloomfield High School ($17,793), yet its outcomes are lagging. The school also shows a widening achievement gap for its most vulnerable students, with Low Socio-Economic Status students ranking in the 29th percentile and Special Education students in the bottom 19th percentile statewide. While the school has historically shown year-to-year volatility in performance, the current trajectory suggests underlying challenges that need attention to reverse the decline and close the gap with its in-district rival.
