Summary:
The 48083 zip code in Troy, Michigan is home to a single high school, Troy College and Career High School, which is part of the highly-ranked Troy School District. While the district as a whole is rated 5 out of 5 stars and ranked 43 out of 613 districts in Michigan, Troy College and Career High School appears to be underperforming compared to district and state averages.
The school has a 4-year graduation rate of 82.8%, which is lower than the state average, and a dropout rate of 7.6%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school struggles with high chronic absenteeism at 29.5%. On state assessments, the school's proficiency rates are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subjects. Despite the school's higher spending per student ($14,852) and slightly higher student-teacher ratio (14.3) compared to state averages, these factors do not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes.
While the Troy School District is highly ranked, the data suggests that Troy College and Career High School may be an outlier within the district, with lower performance metrics than the district and state as a whole. Further investigation would be needed to understand the root causes of the school's challenges and identify potential areas for improvement to better support the students and community it serves.
