Summary:
Concord Community Schools in Michigan has only one high school, Concord High School, which serves 215 students from grades 9-12. The school is facing significant academic challenges, with declining statewide rankings, below-average test scores, and a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Concord High School's student population is predominantly White (75.35%), with smaller percentages of African American (10.7%), Hispanic (7.91%), Asian (0.47%), and two or more races (5.58%) students. The school has a high percentage of students (55.35%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population. Despite higher-than-average spending per student ($16,390) and a slightly lower student-teacher ratio (14.2) compared to the state, the school's academic performance remains a concern, with scores below the state average in M-Step/Science, M-Step/Social Studies, SAT/Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and SAT/Mathematics.
While Concord High School has a 0.0% dropout rate, which is better than the state average, its four-year graduation rate of 83.3% is lower than the state average. The school's 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and its declining statewide ranking, from 452 out of 561 Michigan high schools in 2020-2021 to 570 out of 743 in 2023-2024, suggest that the Concord Community Schools district needs to implement targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes at Concord High School.
