Summary

Stadium Drive Elementary School in Lake Orion, MI, is a highly-rated K-5 school serving 444 students as part of the Lake Orion Community Schools district, which holds a 4-star rating and ranks in the 88th percentile statewide.

Stadium Drive consistently earns a 4-star rating and ranks in the 85th-90th percentile of Michigan elementary schools, placing it ahead of most of its immediate district neighbors, including Paint Creek Elementary School (79th pct), Orion Oaks Elementary School (78th pct), and Blanche Sims Elementary School (83rd pct). What truly sets Stadium Drive apart is its remarkable consistency—proficiency rates in English Language Arts (56.2% to 72.1%) and Math (67.6% to 72.6%) are uniformly high across all grade levels, with no significant weak spots. This contrasts with schools like Carpenter Elementary School, which shows dramatic spikes in 5th grade but significantly lower performance in 3rd and 4th grades. Stadium Drive achieves these results while spending $14,649 per student—less than Orion Oaks ($15,949) and Blanche Sims ($15,653)—demonstrating exceptional efficiency. The school also excels at attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 10.7%, well below the district average (13.6%) and less than half the state average (27.9%).

While Stadium Drive performs exceptionally well overall, 5th-grade Social Studies is a relative weak point, with only 37.3% proficiency in 2025-2026, below the district average (38.9%)—a trend that has persisted for three consecutive years. The school has also shown remarkable success in reversing an absenteeism trend that peaked at 19.2% in 2021-2022, dropping to 10.7% by 2024-2025. Additionally, the school is particularly effective at serving its Hispanic student population, who ranked in the 97th percentile statewide in 2025-2026. Parents should note that the student-teacher ratio of 18.9 is higher than many peers, which may mean larger class sizes, but the school's consistent academic outcomes suggest this has not negatively impacted student achievement.
