Grosse Ile Middle School consistently outperforms the state average in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) were 48.9% for 6th grade and 57.1% for 7th grade, compared to the state averages of 37.5% and 37.9%, respectively.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Thomas Simpson Middle School and Lincoln Park Middle School, Grosse Ile Middle School stands out in terms of academic performance, with significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and math.

However, the school has seen a notable increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.9% in 2019-2020 to 26.3% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern that the school may need to address. Additionally, the performance of certain student subgroups, such as special education students and low socioeconomic status students, is an area that could be improved, as these subgroups have lower rankings compared to the overall school performance. Despite these challenges, Grosse Ile Middle School remains a high-performing middle school that is providing a quality education to its students, as evidenced by its strong academic performance and financial commitment to student education.

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.
