High Schools in Insight School of Michigan

Insight School of Michigan is the sole high school serving grades 9-12 in the Insight School of Michigan district, located in Lansing, Michigan. This public charter virtual high school has a total enrollment of 652 students, with a predominantly White student body and significant populations of African American and Hispanic students. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Michigan high schools and received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in serving its students.

The school's performance metrics are concerning, with a low 4-year graduation rate of 55.7%, a high dropout rate of 23.4%, and an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 70.6%. Academically, Insight School of Michigan students perform significantly below the state average on standardized tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 20.7% to 27.4% across different subject areas, compared to state averages of 36.1% to 52.2%. The school's high percentage of students (77.15%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch suggests that it serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the challenges it faces.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 17:1 and slightly above-average spending per student of $12,951, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes. The data indicates that Insight School of Michigan is a struggling school that needs significant interventions to address its academic, attendance, and graduation rate challenges in order to better serve its students and the Lansing community.
