Macomb Isd operates 7 public schools serving 3,882 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Michigan. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 combined, 2 high, 1 middle, 1 elementary schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Macomb County.
The funding mix is 53.1% local, 29.6% state, and 17.3% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers.
and 65.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 67.0% White, 23.1% African American, 3.3% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Keith Bovenschen School, with a diversity index of 61.4/100.
Its largest campus is Bozymowski Center, enrolling 317 students (30% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Maple Lane School, at 55 students, a 6x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Macomb Isd school enrollment varies 5.8× across entities
Macomb Isd school enrollment ranges from 55 students (lowest) to 317 students (highest), a spread of 262 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Macomb Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 65.4% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
