Summary:

The 48166 zip code is home to a single public high school, Jefferson High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's performance, as measured by test scores and other metrics, is generally below the state averages for Michigan, suggesting it may be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students.

Jefferson Schools (Monroe), the district that Jefferson High School is a part of, is ranked 418 out of 613 districts in the state and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate is 82.8%, and its dropout rate is 7.6%. Additionally, 29.5% of students at Jefferson High School were chronically absent in the 2023-2024 school year.

While Jefferson High School's spending per student ($15,484) is relatively high compared to the state average, this does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes for the students. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments, such as the M-Step and SAT, are below the state averages in several subject areas. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (50.81%) also indicates that the school serves a relatively disadvantaged population, which could present additional challenges in terms of student achievement and resource allocation.
