Summary

Mason Middle School is a public middle school serving 752 students in grades 6-8 in the Mason Public Schools district in Ingham County, Michigan. The school is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger and has consistently outperformed the state average in M-Step and PSAT test scores across all grade levels and subjects.

One key differentiator for Mason Middle School is its strong academic performance, particularly in test scores. For example, in 2024-2025, 51.9% of 8th graders were proficient in M-Step Science, compared to the state average of 41.1%. The school also performs well across different student subgroups, with female and male students ranking in the top 25% and 20% of Michigan middle schools, respectively, in recent years. However, the school's performance for Hispanic, White, and Special Education students is more mixed, with rankings ranging from the top 25% to the bottom 50% of schools.

Compared to nearby middle schools, Williamston Middle School, which is 11 miles away, ranks in the top 10% of Michigan middle schools and outperforms Mason in most academic areas. However, Mason outperforms lower-ranked schools like Leslie Middle School and the Holt Public Schools middle schools. The school's relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (around 30%) compared to some nearby schools may be a contributing factor to its stronger academic performance.
