Summary:
The Morrice Area Schools district in Michigan consists of two schools - Morrice Area Elementary School and Morrice Area High School. Both schools are performing well below state averages across a range of academic and resource metrics, with no clear standout schools in the district.
Academically, proficiency rates on state assessments are low, with only 26.9% of 3rd graders at the elementary school proficient in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39.6%. At the high school level, just 48.3% of students met the benchmark in Evidence-Based Reading and Writing on the SAT, and only 20.7% in Mathematics. Graduation rates are slightly below the state average, while dropout rates are higher.
The district also faces challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism, at 35.2% for the elementary school and 30.8% for the high school. Additionally, the student populations at both schools are overwhelmingly White, with very little racial diversity, which may limit the educational experiences and perspectives available to students. Overall, the Morrice Area Schools district appears to be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, and addressing these key issues should be a priority for the district moving forward.
