Summary:
The 48096 zip code has only one school, Endeavour Elementary and Middle School, which serves grades K-8 and has an enrollment of 585 students. The school is part of the New Haven Community Schools district, which is ranked 323 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Endeavour Elementary and Middle School has faced some challenges in recent years. Its chronic absenteeism rate is relatively high at 29.5%, and its test scores generally fall below the state averages, particularly in math. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 35.7% compared to the state average of 38.9%, and the 5th grade math proficiency rate was 16.4% compared to the state's 32.9%. Additionally, a significant portion of the school's students (57.44%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.
Despite these challenges, Endeavour Elementary and Middle School has some positive attributes. The school's spending per student of $9,819 is slightly above the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 18.6 to 1 is only slightly higher than the recommended ratio. However, the school's performance has declined over the past few years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 411 out of 1,470 schools in 2022-2023 to 799 out of 1,488 schools in 2024-2025. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving student attendance, strengthening its math curriculum and instruction, and addressing the socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student outcomes.
