Public Grades 9-12
Summary

Woodville Community Center is a public high school in Jackson, Michigan, serving 143 students in grades 9-12. Despite being part of the Western School District, which is ranked 190 out of 606 districts in the state, Woodville Community Center has consistently underperformed compared to nearby schools like Western High School.

Woodville Community Center has struggled with low academic achievement, with its students ranking in the bottom 25% of Michigan high schools over the past decade. The school's student subgroups, such as male students, white students, and those from low-income backgrounds, have also performed poorly, indicating significant achievement gaps. Woodville Community Center has had alarmingly low graduation rates, ranging from 40.9% to 65.3% over the past five years, much lower than the 95.7% rate at Western High School. Additionally, the school has experienced high dropout rates, ranging from 6.1% to 22.8%, and chronic absenteeism rates as high as 63.1%, far exceeding the district and state averages.

The challenges faced by Woodville Community Center are further compounded by its high poverty levels, with 65.73% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the 29.67% at Western High School. The school's low spending per student ($0 in 2022-2023) compared to nearby schools like Da Vinci Institute 612 ($11,537) and Jackson High School ($16,519) may be a contributing factor to its underperformance. Addressing the unique challenges faced by Woodville Community Center will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve outcomes for the students and community it serves.
