Copper Island Academy


Summary:

Copper Island Academy is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in Calumet, Michigan. This standout school consistently outperforms the state average on academic assessments, with its students scoring significantly higher in English Language Arts and Math compared to their peers across Michigan. However, the school's student population lacks racial diversity, with 99.38% of students identifying as White.

Copper Island Academy's academic performance is exceptional, with 5th grade students scoring 63.3% proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 44%. In 4th grade Math, 61.4% of students scored proficient or better, well above the state's 39.1% average. The school's 8th grade students also excelled on the PSAT, with 87.5% scoring proficient or better in English Language Arts, far surpassing the state's 64.5% average.

While the school's academic achievements are impressive, its chronic absenteeism rate of 26.3% is higher than the state's average, which could be an area for improvement. Additionally, the school's lack of racial diversity, with nearly all students identifying as White, suggests the need for targeted outreach and recruitment efforts to ensure equitable access and representation. Despite these challenges, Copper Island Academy appears to be a highly effective school, efficiently allocating its resources to support student learning and achievement within the Copper Island Academy district.
