Summary

Jonesville Middle School in Jonesville, MI, serves 297 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Jonesville Community Schools district. This is a school on a clear upward trajectory, climbing from the 42nd percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 68th percentile in 2025-2026—a jump from a 2-star to a 3-star rating that reflects consistent, school-wide improvement.

The most remarkable story here is the school's work with Special Education students. In 2017-2018, this subgroup ranked in the 12th percentile statewide; by 2025-2026, they rank in the 90th percentile, earning a 5-star rating. That kind of turnaround suggests highly effective, targeted support systems that are truly making a difference. Another standout metric is chronic absenteeism, which has plummeted from 36.8% in 2021-2022 to just 9.8% in 2024-2025—far better than the state average of 27.9% and lower than every nearby comparable school, including Davis Middle School (19.1%) and Western Middle School (17.5%). This points to a school culture where kids want to show up.

Academically, 7th-grade math is a clear strength, with 48% proficiency—well above the state average of 33.3% and higher than Western Middle School (46.6%) and Legg Middle School (30%). Boys are performing especially well, ranking in the 74th percentile statewide, while girls rank in the 52nd percentile—an unusual gap worth noting. The school also achieves these results efficiently, spending $13,081 per student, less than nearby Hudson Middle School ($15,467) and Homer Middle School ($16,450). While 6th-grade English Language Arts scores (23.5%) lag behind the state average, that same cohort jumps to 39.8% by 7th grade, showing the school effectively closes learning gaps as students progress.
