Fowler Public Schools

The Fowler Public Schools district in Michigan consists of two schools: Waldron Elementary and Middle School and Fowler High School. Waldron Elementary and Middle School stands out for its consistently high academic performance, with students scoring well above state averages in various subjects. The school is ranked in the top 20% of Michigan elementary schools and has a 4-star rating. In contrast, Fowler High School excels in graduation rates, with a 92.8% four-year graduation rate, and strong performance on standardized tests like the SAT.

Both schools have relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, indicating a focus on student attendance. However, the student populations at both schools are overwhelmingly White, with limited racial and ethnic diversity. This lack of diversity may be an area for the district to explore, as research suggests that diverse learning environments can provide valuable educational and social benefits for students.

In terms of resource allocation, Waldron Elementary and Middle School spends more per student ($13,552) compared to Fowler High School ($12,886), which may contribute to the strong academic performance observed at the elementary and middle school level. Overall, the Fowler Public Schools district appears to be performing well, with standout achievements in academic excellence and graduation rates, but the lack of diversity in the student populations is an area that may warrant further consideration.
