Summary

Boulan Park Middle School in Troy, MI, is a high-performing public school serving 839 students in grades 6-8 as part of the highly ranked Troy School District.

Boulan Park consistently ranks among the top 20 middle schools in Michigan, currently holding the #12 spot statewide—the highest of any middle school in its district, ahead of Larson Middle School (#30), Smith Middle School (#44), and Baker Middle School (#70). What truly sets Boulan Park apart is its exceptional math performance: 78.6% of 8th graders scored proficient on the PSAT math exam, compared to 66.5% district-wide and just 33.2% statewide. This strength outpaces nearby high-achieving schools like Derby Middle School (68%) and North Hills Middle School (69.7%). The school also ranks #1 in the state for English Language Learner performance and #8 for Special Education students, demonstrating that its success extends across all student groups. With a chronic absenteeism rate of just 9.8%—less than half the state average—students are clearly engaged and attending school regularly.

Boulan Park achieves these outstanding results while spending less per student ($15,016) than neighboring districts like Birmingham Public Schools and Bloomfield Hills Schools, where per-student costs range from $20,000 to $25,000. While the school's state ranking has dipped slightly from #3 a few years ago to #12 now, it remains in the top 2% statewide—an impressive feat for a comprehensive neighborhood school serving a larger, more diverse student body than the specialized, application-based Birmingham Covington School (ranked #1). For parents seeking a middle school that delivers exceptional academics, strong support for all learners, and high student engagement, Boulan Park is an outstanding choice.

white kids and principal and office and some teachers are racist. with 52 brown kids they treat them bad Close Quote

I have my kid studying here. though i am highly satisfied with all the teachers(Except Social Science). Teachers help and explain the details and help them grow. The social science gentleman seems not keen in teaching and he rarely answers or explains to students.
I would like to request the principal please do check what the teachers do in class do he actually teaches or does something else.

I would give like to give 5 stars but because of Social science teacher i will rank this school on 3 . Close Quote
