Summary:
The Wolverine Community School District in Michigan has only one high school, Wolverine MiddleHigh School, which serves students in grades 6-12. The school faces several challenges, including below-average academic performance compared to state standards, a high percentage of low-income students, and a concerning chronic absenteeism rate.
Wolverine MiddleHigh School's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state averages in Michigan across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 6th grade English Language Arts, the school scored 36.4% proficient or better, compared to the state average of 37.5%. The school's performance has also declined in recent years, dropping from the 488th out of 666 Michigan high schools in 2018-2019 to 442nd out of 735 in 2022-2023.
Despite these academic challenges, Wolverine MiddleHigh School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 95.8%, which is above the state average. However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.9% may be contributing to its lower academic performance. Additionally, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 85.19% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which can present unique challenges in terms of academic support and resources.
