Summary:
The Perry Public Schools district in Michigan has only one middle school, Perry Middle School, which serves students in grades 5-8. While the school has a predominantly White student population, it lacks racial diversity compared to the state average. Academically, Perry Middle School struggles, with student performance on state assessments falling below the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, though the school performs closer to the state average in Science and Social Studies.
One significant concern at Perry Middle School is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 50%, which may be contributing to the school's academic challenges. Despite adequate funding and resources, as evidenced by the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio, the school's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating fluctuating in recent years.
Overall, the data suggests that Perry Public Schools and Perry Middle School have room for improvement, particularly in addressing the academic performance and chronic absenteeism issues. Focusing on instructional practices, student support, and attendance could be key priorities for the school and district to help improve student outcomes.
