Summary:
The 48383 zip code area is home to a single middle school, White Lake Middle School, which is part of the Huron Valley Schools district. While the district is ranked 162 out of 613 in Michigan and has a 4-star rating, White Lake Middle School's academic performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 283 out of 890 in 2024-2025 to 306 out of 897 in 2023-2024.
The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies have generally been below the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which may be contributing to its lower academic performance. The school's student demographics, with a 38.77% free/reduced lunch rate, suggest a significant proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which can present additional challenges.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $14,386, it appears that the resources are not being effectively utilized to support student learning and achievement. The school and district may need to explore strategies to address these areas of concern, such as improving student engagement, targeting academic interventions, and ensuring equitable access to educational resources.
