Summary

Laingsburg Middle School in Laingsburg, MI, serves 251 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Laingsburg Community Schools district, which ranks in the 82nd percentile statewide.

This school is a strong academic performer that consistently beats state averages in nearly every subject. It truly shines in 8th grade, where 85.7% of students are proficient in English Language Arts on the PSAT—matching top local schools like DeWitt Middle School (85.1%) and far exceeding the state average of 64.8%. In 8th-grade Social Studies, 76.5% of students are proficient, which is 26 points above the state average and competitive with the best schools in the area. The school has also made impressive strides in math: 8th-grade PSAT math proficiency jumped from 31.3% (below the state average) in 2022-2023 to 44% in 2025-2026, now well above the state average of 33.2%. This upward trend is reflected in the school's overall ranking, which has climbed from the 74th to the 80th percentile over the past four years.

What makes Laingsburg particularly noteworthy is its efficiency. At $12,718 per student, it spends less than any nearby middle school—including Corunna Middle School ($14,653) and Haslett Middle School ($13,655)—while achieving results on par with or better than those schools. However, there are areas to watch. Chronic absenteeism hovers around 20%, which is better than the state average (27.9%) but higher than high-performing peers like St Johns Middle School (12.3%). Additionally, while the school serves male students exceptionally well (84th percentile statewide), students from low socio-economic backgrounds, though improving, still score lower than the rest of the student body. Overall, Laingsburg is a cost-effective, high-achieving school on a positive trajectory, with its main challenges being the gap between ELA and math scores and reducing absenteeism.
