Summary:
The 48420 zip code area is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While some schools, such as Clio Intermediate School and Clio Area High School, have performed relatively well, the district as a whole faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, a large percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and academic underperformance, particularly in math.
The data reveals that Clio Intermediate School stands out as a top performer, with its 4th and 5th-grade test scores in English Language Arts and Math at or above the state averages. In contrast, the Clio Community High School, an alternative school, struggles with significantly lower test scores and higher absenteeism and dropout rates compared to the other schools in the district.
Overall, the Clio Area School District is ranked 321 out of 613 districts in Michigan and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating that the district faces broader systemic issues that need to be addressed, such as improving academic performance, reducing chronic absenteeism, and supporting economically disadvantaged students.
