Summary:

The 48360 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, all part of the Lake Orion Community Schools district. This district is ranked 75 out of 613 in Michigan and has a 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

The standout schools in this area are the two middle schools, Waldon Middle School and Scripps Middle School, which are ranked 87th and 67th out of 890 Michigan middle schools, respectively. Both schools have exceptional test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Math, and have a 5 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. Additionally, Stadium Drive Elementary School stands out, ranking in the top 15% of Michigan elementary schools and consistently outperforming the district and state averages on assessments.

While the middle schools and Stadium Drive Elementary School excel, the data also reveals some areas of concern. Lake Orion Community High School has a graduation rate and dropout rate close to the state averages, and Learning Options High School, a public magnet school, lags behind the district and state averages on state assessments. Additionally, the schools in this area serve populations with diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, which may impact their academic performance and resource needs.
