The city of Gwinn, Michigan is home to 3 schools serving grades K-12, including 2 elementary schools and 1 middle/high school. The schools in this area show a mix of strengths and challenges, with George D Gilbert Elementary School standing out as the highest-performing school in the district based on its statewide ranking and academic proficiency rates.
While the Gwinn MiddleHigh School has a relatively low statewide ranking, it has shown some positive performance in certain areas, such as its 11th-grade students outperforming the district and state averages in SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing. However, the school also faces challenges, including lower-than-average graduation rates and higher dropout rates. Across the district, chronic absenteeism is a significant concern, with rates ranging from 38.1% to 45.8%.
The schools in the Gwinn Area Community Schools district serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing these disparities and improving academic outcomes for all students should be a top priority for the district as it works to provide a high-quality education for the community.
