Summary:
The city of Onsted, Michigan is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school. The schools in this district show a mix of academic performance, with Onsted Middle School emerging as the strongest performer, consistently ranking in the top half of Michigan middle schools. While the district faces challenges with high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility and chronic absenteeism, there are also some bright spots, such as Onsted Elementary exceeding state averages in 5th grade test scores in several subjects.
Onsted Community High School is an area of concern, with a below-average 4-year graduation rate and test scores in math and science that fall behind state averages. The district's resource allocation also varies significantly, with per-student spending ranging from $12,098 at the high school to $15,243 at the middle school, suggesting a need to examine equity in funding and support across the schools.
Overall, the Onsted Community Schools district presents a mixed picture, with some strong academic performance at the middle school level but also areas that require attention and improvement. Continued focus on addressing attendance, graduation rates, and resource distribution could help the district better serve its students and community.
