Summary

Milan High School is a public high school serving 559 students in grades 9-12 in Milan, Michigan, which is part of the Milan Area Schools district. The school has maintained relatively stable graduation rates, ranging from 81.7% to 95.0% in recent years, which is generally on par with or slightly higher than the state average. However, Milan High School has experienced higher-than-average dropout rates and chronic absenteeism, which are areas of concern.

Academically, Milan High School's performance has been mixed compared to state and district averages. While the school performs better in some areas, such as SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, it lags behind in others, like SAT Mathematics and M-Step Science. When compared to nearby schools, Washtenaw International High School significantly outperforms Milan High School on test scores, while Pathways To Success Academic Campus, an alternative school, has lower test scores and a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Milan High School's performance has also fluctuated over the years, with a decline in its statewide ranking from 129 out of 531 schools in 2021-2022 to 326 out of 739 schools in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students generally outperforming male students and white students outperforming low socioeconomic status students. This highlights the need for targeted interventions to address the achievement gaps within the school.
