Summary

Kosciuszko School is a public middle school in Hamtramck, Michigan, serving 272 students in grades 7-8. The school is part of the Hamtramck School District, which is ranked 525 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Kosciuszko School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Michigan middle schools, with its students performing significantly below state averages on standardized assessments. For example, in 2024-2025, only 19.1% of 7th graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39.2%. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (88.24%) and English Language Learners may contribute to these academic challenges. Nearby schools, such as Lincoln Middle School and Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences Middle School, also struggle with low academic performance and high rates of economic disadvantage, suggesting broader systemic issues in the area.

One bright spot is the nearby University Preparatory Science and Math PSAD Middle School, which demonstrates higher academic achievement, indicating that alternative educational models may be beneficial for students in this community. However, the consistently high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 29.5% to 46.5% at Kosciuszko School, remain a significant concern and are linked to lower academic outcomes. Addressing these challenges will require targeted interventions and a focus on equity to ensure all students in Hamtramck have access to a high-quality education.
