North Huron School

Summary:

North Huron School is a public alternative school serving grades K-12 in the small town of Kinde, Michigan, with an enrollment of 318 students as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has a diverse racial makeup, with the majority of students being White (89.94%), followed by Hispanic (6.29%), and students of two or more races (3.14%).

North Huron School has seen fluctuations in its key metrics, including graduation rates ranging from a high of 97.0% in 2020-2021 to a low of 82.1% in 2022-2023, and dropout rates ranging from a low of 2.9% in 2020-2021 to a high of 14.7% in 2018-2019. However, the school's graduation rates are generally higher than the state average. Chronic absenteeism has been a significant concern, rising from 5.6% in 2018-2019 to 23.9% in 2021-2022, which is an area the school should address. North Huron School's test scores, as measured by the M-Step and SAT assessments, are generally lower than the state averages across various grade levels and subject areas.

When compared to nearby schools, Caseville School K12 has higher graduation rates and lower chronic absenteeism, while Huron Learning Center, being a smaller alternative school, has a much lower student-teacher ratio. North Huron School's diversity, with a higher percentage of Hispanic and multi-racial students compared to the nearby schools, could be an asset, but also highlights the need to ensure that all students are receiving the support and resources they need to succeed. The school's increased per-student spending, from $13,074 in 2019-2020 to $18,497 in 2022-2023, could potentially contribute to improvements in student outcomes.

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.
