Summary:
The 48216 zip code area in Michigan is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary school and 2 high schools, with no middle schools or alternative schools. Based on the available data, these schools are collectively underperforming compared to state-wide metrics, with low proficiency rates, high chronic absenteeism, and below-average graduation rates.
The elementary school, Escuela Avancemos, has very low proficiency rates across all grade levels and subject areas, significantly underperforming the state averages. The two high schools, Covenant High School Southwest and Detroit Public Safety Academy, also have low proficiency rates, with only around 10-15% of students scoring proficient or better on state assessments. Additionally, both high schools have graduation rates around 82.8%, which is below the state average, and high dropout rates of 7.6%.
The student population at these schools is predominantly from low-income families, with all three schools having very high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 95.88% to 100%. This high-poverty student population is often associated with various challenges, such as limited resources, higher rates of absenteeism, and lower academic achievement. Addressing the needs of these schools may require targeted interventions and additional support to improve student outcomes.
