Chassell Township School is a K-12 school in Chassell, Michigan. It is the only school in the school district.[1]

History[edit]

Original 1912 high school building

The current school building opened in 1992.[2] The original high school building was built in 1912 and, together with a 1917 elementary school, has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 2009 as the Chassell School Complex.[3]

Academics[edit]

In 2016, Chassell was recognized by US News & World Report as a national bronze medal school.[4]

A trades program was started in 2016, including carpentry, plumbing, and welding, with $16,000 of equipment costs funded by the Chassell Township Public School Foundation.[5] The school also offers career and technical education in subjects including auto mechanics, nursing aide, and early childhood education.[6]

Chassell received a 95.78% graduation index rating and an 83.33% overall index rating in 2016-17 from the Michigan Department of Education Center for Educational Performance and Information.[7]

Graduating class sizes from 2010 to 2015 averaged approximately 19 students (ranging from 11 to 22 students). Approximately 70% of these students went on to at least some post-secondary education.[8]

The Chassell Township Panthers compete as a class D school in the Copper Mountain Conference of the Michigan High School Athletic Association. The school colors are blue and gold.[9] The following sports are offered:[10]
