Summary:
The Lincoln-King Adams-Young Academy district in Michigan contains a single public charter high school, LincolnKing Adams Young School Grove Campus, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 539 students.
This school faces significant challenges, with proficiency rates on state assessments well below the state average - less than 10% of students meet standards in any subject. The school also has an extremely high rate of chronic absenteeism at 74.6%, which is a major contributor to the poor academic outcomes. Demographically, the school has an overwhelmingly African American student population (98.89%), raising questions about equity and access to educational opportunities in the community.
Despite the low test scores, the school maintains a relatively high graduation rate of 93.1%. However, this may be due in part to the fact that 99.26% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of poverty that likely impact academic performance. Without data on per-student spending, it is difficult to fully evaluate the resources available to support student learning at this school, but the combination of academic, attendance, and demographic challenges suggests the need for significant interventions and support to improve outcomes for these students.
