Summary:
Morley Stanwood Community Schools is a small school district in Michigan that serves the town of Morley Stanwood and the surrounding area. The district has only one high school, Morley Stanwood High School, which serves grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of 362 students.
Morley Stanwood High School faces some significant challenges compared to state averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is notably lower than the state in most subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 14.9% in science and math to 44.6% in reading and writing. The school's performance has also declined in recent years. Additionally, the school has a lower four-year graduation rate of 80.2% and a higher dropout rate of 7.4% compared to state averages.
Other areas of concern for Morley Stanwood High School include a high rate of chronic absenteeism at 30.2% and a student-teacher ratio that is higher than the state average. Despite relatively high per-student spending of $15,179, the school's academic and student success outcomes do not seem to reflect this level of investment. Addressing these challenges will likely require a comprehensive approach by the Morley Stanwood Community Schools district to improve student engagement, academic support, and overall school performance.
