Summary

Power Middle School in Farmington Hills, MI, serves 621 students in grades 5 through 8 and is part of the Farmington Public School District, which ranks in the 77th percentile statewide. The school has earned a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade, with its state ranking improving from the 65th percentile in 2018-2019 to the 79th-82nd percentile in recent years.

Power Middle School stands out for its exceptional results with specific student groups. In the 2025-2026 school year, the school ranked 2nd out of 260 schools statewide for Hispanic students, placing them in the 99th percentile—a remarkable achievement that reflects a strong upward trend over the past three years. The school also performs well with Multi-racial students (89th-92nd percentile) and English Language Learners (80th percentile). Academically, Power shows particular strength in English Language Arts, with 8th-grade PSAT proficiency at 78.8%, significantly outpacing the state average of 64.8%. Within the district, Power is the clear academic leader, with a state rank of 183 (80th percentile) compared to East Middle School's rank of 336 (62nd percentile). In 7th-grade math, Power's proficiency rate of 47.5% far exceeds East's 32.6%.

However, the school faces challenges. Chronic absenteeism has hovered around 23% for the past four years—better than the state average of 27.9% but notably higher than nearby high-performing schools like Meads Mill Middle School (14.3%) and Hillside Middle School (14.1%) in Northville. Additionally, Special Education students rank in the 32nd percentile, representing the school's weakest area of performance. On a positive note, Power spends approximately $18,882 per student—less than East Middle School ($21,275) and significantly less than Glenn W Levey Middle School ($25,870)—yet achieves far better academic outcomes, suggesting efficient use of resources.
