Summary

Grandville High School is a large, highly rated public high school in Grandville, MI, serving 1,719 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Grandville Public Schools district.

For parents, the headline news is consistency and strong outcomes. Grandville has earned a 4-star rating for nearly a decade, ranking in the top 20% of Michigan high schools. Its graduation rate has held steady around 96-97% for five years—well above the state average of 84%—and chronic absenteeism is nearly half the state rate. Academically, 11th graders posted strong SAT scores (67.2% proficient in reading/writing, 45.8% in math) and an especially impressive 53.2% proficiency in science, which outpaces nearby Hudsonville High School (39.5%) and rivals Jenison High School (48.6%). The school also shows a strong commitment to equity: African American students recently ranked in the 87th percentile statewide, a notable improvement. Spending is moderate at $16,294 per student, suggesting efficient use of resources.

The main challenge is supporting Special Education students. Their performance has dropped dramatically, from the 84th percentile statewide three years ago to the 13th percentile now—a red flag that warrants immediate attention from parents of students with IEPs. When comparing Grandville to nearby schools, a clear picture emerges. To the south and east, schools like Wyoming High School, Kelloggsville High School, and Godwin Heights Senior High School serve higher percentages of low-income students and post significantly lower test scores. To the north and west, Grandville is on par with high-achieving suburban peers like Hudsonville and Jenison. Overall, this is a stable, high-performing school with excellent graduation rates—just be sure to ask about current supports for special education if that applies to your child.
