Hamady Community High School

Public Grades 9-12

724^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 800 Michigan High Schools

Better than 10% of Michigan high schools

Summary

Hamady Community High School in Flint, MI, serves approximately 397 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Westwood Heights Schools district, where 84.1% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch.

The most striking thing about Hamady is its graduation rate. In 2024-2025, the school posted a 90.6% graduation rate—well above the state average of 84.0% and a remarkable 33 points higher than its own district's rate of 57.6%. This isn't a fluke; Hamady has stayed above 85% for five straight years. Compare that to nearby Beecher High School (75.7%) or Carman-Ainsworth High School (81.7%), and Hamady is clearly doing something right when it comes to keeping kids on track. Its dropout rate of 5.2% is dramatically lower than the district's 28.8% and far better than alternatives like The Learning CoOp (78.5%) or Flex High North Flint (66.6%).

However, test scores tell a different story. Hamady consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Michigan high schools, and while it outperforms its district on nearly every subject, proficiency rates remain low—for example, only 19.3% of 11th graders are proficient in SAT Reading/Writing. Chronic absenteeism is a major factor, with 51.1% of students missing significant school time, nearly double the state rate. On a positive note, the school has shown dramatic recent improvement for its African American students, jumping from the 1st percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 27th percentile in 2025-2026. Hamady also achieves its results efficiently, spending $17,165 per student—roughly half of what Beecher High School spends ($35,510) while achieving a far better graduation rate. In short, Hamady excels at getting students to graduation day, even if academic proficiency remains a work in progress.
