Summary

Hudson Area JRSR High School serves 488 students in grades 7-12 in the rural community of Hudson, Michigan, and has recently improved its state ranking from the 16th to the 40th percentile over the past few years.

The most impressive thing about this school is its graduation rate. For the 2024-2025 school year, 91.3% of students graduated, which is well above the state average of 84.0% and dramatically higher than the district average of just 61.9% for Hudson Area Schools. This pattern has held for five straight years, showing that the school is very effective at keeping students on track to earn their diplomas. In fact, its graduation rate is competitive with or better than nearby schools like Morenci Middle and High School (86.0%) and Addison High School (82.9%). The school also shows a notable strength in 11th-grade science, where 37.5% of students scored proficient on the M-Step, slightly above the state average of 35.2%.

However, there are clear areas of concern. The biggest academic challenge is math—while English Language Arts scores are relatively close to state averages, math proficiency rates are often less than half of the ELA rates. For example, only 17.4% of 10th graders were proficient in PSAT math, compared to 31.5% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is also an issue, with 28.4% of students missing significant school time, slightly above the state average. Additionally, the school spends less per student ($10,382) than most nearby schools like Sand Creek High School ($14,886) and has a higher student-to-teacher ratio of 19.3, which may mean less individual attention. While the school is clearly succeeding at graduating its students, families should be aware that math support and consistent attendance will be important areas to watch.
