Chassell Township School is a K-12 school in Chassell, Michigan. It is the only school in the school district.[2]

History

[edit]
Original 1912 high school building

The current school building opened in 1992.[3] 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.[4]

Academics

[edit]

In 2016, Chassell was recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a national bronze medal school.[5]

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.[6] The school also offers career and technical education in subjects including auto mechanics, nursing aide, and early childhood education.[7]

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.[8]

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.[9]

Athletics

[edit]

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.[10] The following sports are offered:[11]

  • Basketball (boys and girls)
  • Cross country (boys and girls)
  • Football (boys) (co-op with Hancock)
  • Golf (boys and girls)
  • Ice hockey (boys)
  • Track (boys and girls)
  • Volleyball (girls)

The girls' basketball team reached the Class D state final in 2018, losing 36–57 to Lenawee Christian School.[12] Chassell has only approximately 80 high school students and competes against other Class D schools with up to 203 high school students;[13] its 2018 team included 6 of the 7 girls in the school's senior class.[14] This was the first school basketball team to reach the finals since the boys' team won three straight championships from 1956 to 1958.[15]
