Summary:
The Standish-Sterling Community Schools district in Michigan has only one high school, StandishSterling Central JrSr High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school has a relatively homogeneous student population, with 95.82% of students identifying as White, and over 57% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need population from a socioeconomic standpoint.
Academically, StandishSterling Central JrSr High School generally performs above the state average on M-STEP and PSAT assessments, particularly in 7th grade ELA and Math, as well as 11th grade Science and Social Studies. However, the school lags behind the state average on the SAT Math assessment. The school's four-year graduation rate of 85% is slightly below the state average, which may be related to its high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $13,170, the student-teacher ratio of 20.3 to 1 suggests a need for additional teaching resources. Overall, StandishSterling Central JrSr High School appears to be a relatively strong performer academically, but faces challenges related to attendance, graduation rates, and socioeconomic factors that may require further attention and support from the district and community.
