Summary

Gobles High School is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in the Gobles Public School District, with a student population of 383. The school has a statewide ranking that has fluctuated between 191 and 382 out of Michigan high schools over the past several years, with a current ranking of 283 out of 739 schools. Gobles High School is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Otsego High School and Mattawan High School, Gobles High School has lower graduation rates (ranging from 72.5% to 82.8%), higher dropout rates (ranging from 6.9% to 15.0%), and higher chronic absenteeism rates (ranging from 20.7% to 30.8%). Additionally, the school generally performs below the state and district averages on standardized tests like M-Step and SAT, with 39.1% proficiency in SAT Math compared to the state average of 27.5% in 2024-2025.

Gobles High School's performance appears to be influenced by its relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 62.66% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and varying performance across different student subgroups suggest that it may be facing unique challenges in engaging and supporting its student population, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds. While the school spends a relatively high amount per student ($17,917 in 2023-2024), this does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes, indicating that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and spending priorities.
