Best Public Schools in Saint Joseph, MI


Summary:

The city of Saint Joseph, Michigan is home to a high-performing school district, with 6 schools serving students from elementary through high school. The district is led by St. Joseph Public Schools, which includes 3 top-ranked elementary schools, 1 highly-rated middle school, and 1 exceptional high school that ranks among the best in the state.

St Joseph High School stands out as the district's crown jewel, earning a 5-star rating and ranking in the top 60 high schools in Michigan. With over 50% proficiency in core subjects and an impressive 98.3% four-year graduation rate, this school is setting students up for success. Upton Middle School and Brown School are also high-performing, with above-average proficiency rates and 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

While the district as a whole excels academically, there are some equity concerns. The Lighthouse Education Center, an alternative school serving a more disadvantaged student population, has much lower graduation rates and higher chronic absenteeism. Additionally, the student populations at these schools are predominantly white, which may not reflect the broader diversity of the Berrien Regional Educational Service Agency area. Addressing these gaps and ensuring all students have access to the resources and support they need will be crucial for the district's continued success.
