While the elementary schools in the area generally outperform the middle and high schools, the district as a whole is performing well compared to other districts in Michigan. However, the high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, ranging from 29.5%, is a concern that the district should address. Additionally, the wide range in free/reduced lunch rates, from 22.43% at Oakley Park Elementary to 47.68% at Walled Lake Elementary, suggests varying levels of socioeconomic status within the district, which may be a factor in the differences in test scores and school performance.
