Summary:
The 48416 zip code in Michigan is home to two schools: Brown City Elementary School and Brown City High School, both part of the Brown City Community Schools district. The data reveals a mixed picture, with the elementary school demonstrating consistent high performance in math, while the high school faces challenges with academic proficiency and a concerning dropout rate.
Brown City Elementary School stands out for its strong math proficiency, outperforming the state average across multiple grade levels. The school also shows solid performance in 4th grade English Language Arts, with over 50% of students proficient or better. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% is an area for improvement.
In contrast, Brown City High School has seen a decline in its performance, dropping from a 3-star to a 1-star rating over the past three years. While the school performs well on the SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing section and the PSAT, its proficiency rates on the M-Step assessments are lower, and its dropout rate of 7.6% is higher than the state average. These challenges suggest the need for targeted interventions to support student engagement and academic success at the high school level.
