Summary:
High schools in ZIP code 60953 consist of one school, Milford High School Campus, serving grades 9–12 and 149 students. Its reported 2025–26 graduation rate was 97%, above the state’s 90%, while chronic absenteeism was 24%, slightly above the state rate of 23.5% and the Milford Area Public Schools District 124 rate of 17.4%. The clearest academic pattern is a sharp grade-level split: grade 10 results were above the state in all three subjects, while grade 9 results were below in all three.
Because Milford is the only school listed, there is no meaningful local top-to-bottom comparison; its results stand out instead against state figures. Grade 10 PreACT Secure was 55% in English language arts, 46% in math, and 52% in science—1, 9, and 3 percentage points above the state, respectively. Grade 9 was weaker: 52% in English language arts, 23% in math, and 30% in science, trailing the state by 9, 19, and 18 points. Grade 11 ACT science was also notably below the state, at 33% versus 48% (15 points lower). Graduation is a relative strength, but the test results show that performance varies substantially by grade and subject.
Recent results moved in opposite directions across grades: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, grade 10 PreACT scores rose by 18 to 22 points across subjects, while grade 9 scores fell by 28 to 33 points. SchoolDigger ranked Milford at the 39th percentile, 376th of 620 schools, with two stars in 2025–26; its percentile was 56th in 2024–25 and 68th in 2023–24. The school reported a student–teacher ratio of 8.1 to 1 and 62% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25; these figures offer context but do not explain the score patterns. The school’s average state gap across the nine reported test comparisons widened from 4 points below the state in 2024–25 to 7 points below in 2025–26.
