Summary

Morrice Area High School is a small, rural public school in Morrice, MI, serving 215 students in grades 6 through 12 as part of the Morrice Area Schools district.

One of the most striking things about Morrice is its exceptional graduation rate. At 96.5%, it far exceeds the state average of 84.0% and is higher than most nearby schools, including Owosso High School and Corunna High School. The school also boasts a 0.0% dropout rate, a feat matched only by Durand Area High School among its peers. This suggests a strong commitment to keeping students on track. Additionally, Morrice ranks in the 79th percentile statewide for its effectiveness with low socio-economic status students, a notable strength given that 34.4% of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $21,455 per pupil—significantly more than any nearby school, with the next closest being Byron Area High School at $15,732.

However, academic performance is more uneven. While 8th graders score well above state averages in Science (46.4% proficient) and Social Studies (59.3%), only 16.7% of 11th graders are proficient in SAT Math, well below state averages. The school's overall ranking has also been volatile, swinging from the 13th percentile in 2021-2022 to the 82nd percentile in 2024-2025, before settling at the 45th percentile. This instability is likely due to its small size, where the performance of a single class can dramatically shift results. Chronic absenteeism is another concern at 25.3%, which is higher than nearby Perry Secondary Campus (17.2%) and Laingsburg High School. While Morrice excels at getting students to graduation, its test scores suggest that academic proficiency, particularly in high school math, is an area for continued focus.
