Summary

Martin High School in Martin, MI, is a combined middle and high school serving approximately 330 students in grades 6-12 within the Martin Public Schools district. The school has earned a 3-star rating and currently ranks in the 58th percentile statewide, showing positive momentum after a recent improvement from the 46th percentile the year prior.

One of the most impressive aspects of Martin High School is its remarkable success with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. With 42.1% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school ranks in the 80th percentile for this subgroup and has maintained consistent 4-star ratings for three consecutive years. This is a significant achievement that many schools struggle to replicate. The school has also made dramatic strides in keeping students on track to graduate. The graduation rate has climbed from 78.2% to an impressive 94.3%—now exceeding the state average by more than 10 percentage points—while the dropout rate has fallen to 0.0%. Chronic absenteeism has also plummeted to just 9.6%, far better than the state average of 27.9% and dramatically better than nearby Wayland High School (18.6%). These improvements come despite spending less per student ($14,719) than comparable schools like Wayland ($20,708) or Otsego High School ($15,320), suggesting efficient use of resources.

Academically, the picture is mixed. Martin students shine in 10th-grade English Language Arts, where 81% scored proficient on the PSAT—dramatically exceeding the state average of 58% and outperforming every nearby school with available data. However, mathematics remains a significant concern, with only 12.5% of 11th graders proficient on the SAT Math section, less than half the state average. This math weakness appears consistent across grade levels. Additionally, year-to-year test scores fluctuate considerably, likely due to small class sizes, making it difficult to gauge true trends. While the school's unique 6-12 configuration may contribute to strong high school outcomes, middle-grade ELA scores lag behind state averages, suggesting an area for potential growth.
