Chelsea School District

The Chelsea School District in Michigan is home to four high-performing schools, including two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The district is known for its commitment to academic excellence, with all its schools maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years.

Chelsea High School stands out as a top-performing school, with a 96.2% four-year graduation rate and a 2.1% dropout rate. The school's students consistently outperform the state averages in M-Step/Science, M-Step/Social Studies, SAT/Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and SAT/Mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 57.8% to 73%. Beach Middle School is another standout, maintaining a 5-star rating and ranking among the top 60-75 middle schools in Michigan, with impressive proficiency rates on various M-Step and PSAT assessments.

While the Chelsea School District serves a predominantly white and relatively affluent student population, the schools still face some challenges, such as chronic absenteeism, particularly at the high school and elementary school levels. However, the district's strong resource allocation, with per-student spending ranging from $16,144 to $17,776 and student-teacher ratios between 15.1 and 18.3, suggests a commitment to providing quality education and supporting student learning across all grade levels.
