Summary:
The Wolverine Community School District operates two schools - Wolverine MiddleHigh School serving grades 6-12 and Wolverine Elementary School serving grades K-6. Both schools appear to be underperforming compared to state averages, with consistently low academic proficiency rates across grade levels and subject areas.
Wolverine MiddleHigh School has a student population of 135, while Wolverine Elementary School has 121 students. Both schools serve predominantly white student populations, with high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges. Chronic absenteeism rates are also high at both schools, reaching 26.9% at the middle/high school and 38.7% at the elementary school.
The district's schools have consistently ranked in the bottom half of Michigan schools over time, with little to no improvement. Addressing these systemic issues will require a comprehensive review of the district's educational strategies, resource allocation, and community engagement efforts. Improving academic performance, attendance, and supporting the needs of the socioeconomically disadvantaged student population should be top priorities for the Wolverine Community School District.
