Summary

Vicksburg Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Vicksburg, Michigan, part of the Vicksburg Community Schools district. The school has consistently been ranked in the top 25% of Michigan middle schools over the past 10 years, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Vicksburg Middle School outperforms the state average in M-Step and PSAT test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, 49% of 6th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 38.6%. The school also performs well across different student subgroups, ranking in the top 25% of Michigan middle schools for both female and male students. However, the school's performance for multi-racial and special education students is relatively lower, ranking in the bottom 25% of schools. Vicksburg Middle School has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 15.2% in 2021-2022 to 29.5% in 2023-2024, which is an area of concern.

Compared to nearby schools, Parchment Middle School and Hillside Middle School perform similarly or slightly better than Vicksburg Middle School in some academic areas, such as English Language Arts and Science. This highlights the potential impact of specialized programs and resources available at magnet schools like Maple Street Magnet School for the Arts and Milwood Magnet School. Additionally, Vicksburg Middle School serves a relatively more economically advantaged student population compared to nearby schools, which may contribute to its stronger academic performance.
