Middle Schools in Cassopolis Public Schools

Cassopolis Public Schools operates a single middle school, Cassopolis Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Located in Cassopolis, Michigan, the school has a diverse student population but faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low standardized test scores across multiple subjects and grade levels compared to state averages.

Cassopolis Middle School is ranked 736 out of 897 middle schools in Michigan and has a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is a major concern, with only 12.9% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 37.5%. In mathematics, the proficiency rates for 6th and 7th graders were 17.7% and 12.9%, respectively, far below the state averages of 31% and 32.1%. The school's PSAT scores for 8th-grade students were also significantly below the state average, with only 6.8% proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the state average of 32.6%.

Despite the school's low academic performance, it spends a relatively high amount per student ($13,345) compared to the state average. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning and achievement. The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (62.38%) also suggests that the school serves a relatively low-income student population, which may contribute to the academic challenges and require additional resources and support to address.
