Grand Ridge School is a middle-performing school within the Jackson School District, with some areas of strength and some areas that require additional attention and support. The school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in End of Course exams and Statewide Science assessments, suggesting it is effectively preparing students in these subject areas. However, the school's significantly lower proficiency rates in 8th grade Math compared to the state average is a potential area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions. Additionally, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 42.5% is a significant challenge that may be impacting student learning and achievement.

With 50% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Grand Ridge School serves a relatively high-needs population, which may require additional resources and support to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed. The school's spending of $11,334 per student is higher than the state average, suggesting the district is investing resources into the school, but the effectiveness of this spending in improving student outcomes should be further examined.
