Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with East Jordan MiddleHigh ranking 214 out of 743 Michigan high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, the schools outperform state averages, with 53.7% of 3rd graders at East Jordan Elementary proficient or better in ELA compared to the state average of 39.6%. The high school also exceeds state averages on SAT and PSAT assessments. While the student populations are predominantly white, there is some racial diversity, particularly at the elementary school. However, the high school has a much higher chronic absenteeism rate of 18.5% compared to the elementary school's 6.9%, which is an area that may warrant further investigation.

Financially, the high school spends significantly more per student ($18,115) than the elementary school ($15,860), and the high school has a 85.9% four-year graduation rate with a 10.5% dropout rate, both positive indicators of student success. Overall, the East Jordan Public Schools district appears to be performing well, with strong academic achievement and some diversity, though there are a few areas, such as chronic absenteeism and spending differences, that could benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions.
