Middle Schools in Springport Public Schools

Springport Public Schools has one middle school, Springport Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school is located in a relatively low-income area, with 61.47% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's academic performance is generally below the state averages in subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics, its performance in science and social studies is more mixed, with 8th-grade students performing better than the state average in science but worse in social studies.

Over the past three years, Springport Middle School's statewide ranking has declined, from 566th out of 776 Michigan middle schools in 2021-2022 to 457th out of 897 in 2023-2024. The school's SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 1 star out of 5 in 2021-2022 to 2 stars out of 5 in the current school year. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.7%, which is a significant concern and may contribute to its academic challenges.

Overall, Springport Public Schools and Springport Middle School face several challenges, including academic underperformance, declining school rankings and ratings, and high chronic absenteeism. The school's socioeconomic factors, such as the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may also contribute to these challenges. The district and school should work to address these issues and implement targeted interventions to improve student outcomes and the overall quality of education.
