Summary:
The McBain Rural Agricultural Schools district in Michigan is home to a single high school, McBain High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Located in a rural agricultural area, the school has a student population of 299, with a racial makeup that is predominantly White (88.63%) and a significant percentage of students (47.49%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, McBain High School has a mixed performance on state assessments, with some subject areas exceeding the state average, such as M-Step/Science (45.2% proficiency) and SAT/Mathematics (38.4% proficiency), while others fall below, like M-Step/Social Studies (32.9% proficiency) and SAT/Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (50.7% proficiency). The school's four-year graduation rate of 93.4% is relatively high, but its dropout rate of 4.9% is still noteworthy and may warrant further investigation.
Despite the school's overall performance, it faces some challenges, including a high rate of chronic absenteeism (18.7%) and a student-teacher ratio of 18.5, which may impact the school's ability to provide personalized attention to its students. However, the school's spending per student of $13,378 suggests a commitment to investing in its educational resources and supporting the needs of its diverse student population.
