Quest High School consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Michigan high schools, with a statewide ranking between 602-785 out of 735-799 schools over the past decade. It has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of this period, indicating very low academic performance. The school has had extremely low four-year graduation rates, ranging from 22.2% to 52.5% over the past five years, and correspondingly high dropout rates, ranging from 17.5% to 33.3%. Quest High School has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 26.5% to 71.7% over the past five years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Students at Quest High School have consistently underperformed on state assessments (M-Step) and the SAT compared to the Fremont Public School District and the state of Michigan.

The challenges at Quest High School are particularly pronounced when compared to the nearby Fremont High School, which is a much higher-performing school. Fremont High School ranks in the top 25% of Michigan high schools, has a 95.6% four-year graduation rate, and significantly outperforms Quest High School on standardized tests and other key metrics. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Quest High School, coupled with the school's low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and poor graduation rates, suggest that the school may be facing significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students. Targeted interventions and additional support are likely needed to address these issues and improve outcomes for the students at Quest High School.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
