Summary:
The 48088 zip code area is home to three elementary schools: Wilde Elementary School, Pinewood Elementary School, and Briarwood Elementary School. These schools serve students from kindergarten through fifth grade and are part of the Warren Consolidated Schools and Warren Woods Public Schools districts.
Among the three schools, Pinewood Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 563 out of 1,488 Michigan elementary schools in 2024-2025 and consistently earning a 3-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Pinewood's students outperformed the district and state averages in 3rd-5th grade English Language Arts (ELA) and math proficiency. In contrast, Briarwood Elementary School struggled academically, with lower proficiency rates in ELA, math, science, and social studies compared to the other two schools, as well as the district and state averages.
All three schools serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch eligibility rates ranging from 59.81% at Wilde Elementary School to 77.06% at Briarwood Elementary. Additionally, chronic absenteeism rates were high across all three schools, with 29.5% of students chronically absent at each school. The variation in spending per student, from $16,683 at Pinewood Elementary to $19,219 at Briarwood Elementary, raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and its potential impact on student outcomes.
