Summary

CB Sabbath 68 Preparatory Academy is a middle school in River Rouge, MI, serving 261 students in grades 6-8 as part of the River Rouge School District of the City of.

CB Sabbath 68 Preparatory Academy faces significant academic challenges, with state test scores placing it in the bottom 1% of Michigan middle schools. In the most recent school year, only about 3-4% of 6th and 7th graders were proficient in English Language Arts on the M-Step—a fraction of the proficiency rates seen at nearby schools. For example, Allen Park Middle School (about 3.5 miles away) achieves 32-41% proficiency in the same subjects, while Stout Middle School in Dearborn reaches 36-43%. Even schools serving similarly high-poverty populations, like Julian O Strong Middle School, outperform CB Sabbath 68 by roughly seven times in 6th grade reading. The school's ranking has declined steadily over the past decade, from the 14th percentile in 2014-2015 to its current position near the very bottom of the state.

A major factor affecting learning is attendance: 73.8% of students are chronically absent, meaning they miss significant portions of the school year. This rate is more than double the state average and far exceeds nearby schools like Allen Park Middle School (22.2%) and Woodrow Wilson School (26.8%). Notably, the school spends $19,395 per student—substantially more than higher-performing neighboring schools—and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.9. This suggests the challenges are not simply about funding or staffing. There are some bright spots: 8th graders scored higher on the PSAT (27% proficient in ELA) than on the M-Step, and Social Studies showed the strongest results at 12.2% proficiency. These areas may offer a foundation to build upon as the school works to improve outcomes for its students.
