District-Level NCES Analysis
Mount Clemens Community School District operates 3 public schools serving 753 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Michigan. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high, 1 middle 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.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,409 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 83 of 821 Michigan districts by per-pupil spending. See how Michigan compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 53.4% local, 21.9% state, and 24.7% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 58/100, ranked #220 of 707 in Michigan against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 390:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 86.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 66.1% African American, 13.4% White, 4.5% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Seminole Academy, with a diversity index of 54.3/100.
Its largest campus is Seminole Academy, enrolling 407 students (51% of the district's total enrollment).
Seminole Academy accounts for 51.1% of all Mount Clemens Community School District student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Mount Clemens Community School District a distant remainder — means Mount Clemens Community School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Mount Clemens Community School District school enrollment varies 2.7× across entities
Mount Clemens Community School District school enrollment ranges from 151 students (lowest) to 407 students (highest), a spread of 256 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.
Mount Clemens Community School District has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 89.3% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is a supermajority of the population — well past the 75% concentration-grant threshold that unlocks extra funding on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Mount Clemens Community School District student-counselor ratio is 390:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Mount Clemens Community School District chronic absenteeism rate is 86.8% — 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.
