Summary

Lee Middle School is a public middle school located in Wyoming, Michigan, serving 386 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Godfrey-Lee Public Schools district, which is ranked 555 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Lee Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Michigan middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 643 and 801 out of around 900 schools.

The data reveals that Lee Middle School is significantly underperforming compared to the state and district averages across various subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 14.4% of 6th graders and 18.4% of 7th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 38.6% and 39.2%, respectively. The math proficiency rates are even lower, with only 11.6% of 6th graders and 5.2% of 7th graders meeting or exceeding standards, compared to the state averages of 31.5% and 33.3%. Additionally, Lee Middle School has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.4% to 34.2% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Lee Middle School to nearby schools, such as Grandville Middle School, Kelloggsville Middle School, and several schools in the Grand Rapids Public Schools district, it becomes clear that Lee Middle School is significantly underperforming. These nearby schools have much higher academic proficiency rates across multiple subject areas and grade levels. The available data also suggests that Lee Middle School may be facing challenges in providing adequate resources and support for its student population, which has a very high percentage of students (over 90%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
