Morris Consolidated Schools district, which is ranked 556 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mt Morris Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Michigan middle schools, with proficiency rates on state assessments significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies were all below 20%, while the state averages ranged from 33.3% to 47%. The school also faces extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 57.5% over the past few years, and has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 83.69% to 86.33% over the past few years.

When comparing Mt Morris Middle School to nearby schools, such as Marshall Greene Middle School and Flushing Middle School, it is clear that the school is significantly underperforming. These nearby schools have consistently higher academic proficiency rates, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's poor academic performance, the spending per student has increased over the years, suggesting that the issue may not be solely related to funding, but rather to other factors, such as instructional practices, school leadership, and student support services.

Open Quote My daughter has been with the district since 4th grade she’s now going into the 9th. The elementary was great. Middle school is terrible. Principal had no control over the building the environment is terrible most Teachers and staff are sorry. My daughter got multiple write ups and not one time was I told or made aware of them and neither was she. She’s school of choice and now she’s going into high school and can’t get accepted. I believe in mt heart they do this on purpose to ruin kids records. Why would you want a kid to misbehave? Why when I go to conferences not one teacher made me aware of what was going on, nothing on her report card, no notes sent home. When I discussed this with the principal she stated they don’t involve parents unless action is taken and she has minor violations. So how is a kid suppose to learn from behavior and how is a parent supposed to correct and discipline if no communication is not being done? They also pick and choose who they want to discipline and who they want to let slide. The vice principle is highly unprofessional and disrespectful. I actually heard her yelling and chewing kids out when she thought she hung the phone up and didn’t. I called her back and she was disrespectful and dismissive. Asking the kids if they are stupid? Yelling in a mean tone and threatening. Once I threatened to tell the superintendent then my kid got wrote up for having her phone out during class and suspended for 1 day a week before school was out. She’s evil and doesn’t need to be around anyone’s children. Make sure you are checking on your kids and communicating because they won’t. regardless if she has the I reports or not those were her actions but the teachers and staff are just as responsible to make kids accountable for actions and not communicating to the parents or the kids about discipline is irresponsible and ignorant. Because i guarantee had I known she would of not got one more right up again. Of a kid thinks they are getting away with something with no consequences they keep doing it. Because they don’t care. If she continues to get denied at schools I’ll be involving my lawyer. In my eyes if the write ups weren’t important enough to send to me and let me know then they should not be Important enough to send to potential schools. And their reviews are taken off and on Facebook. I wonder why! Close Quote
