Summary:

The 48430 zip code area is home to 5 elementary schools across two school districts - Lake Fenton Community Schools and Fenton Area Public Schools. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and showcase a range of academic performance and student demographics.

Among the standout schools in this area are Torrey Hill Intermediate School, which has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Michigan elementary schools, and TomekEastern Elementary School, which has maintained a 4-star rating and ranked in the top 20% of Michigan elementary schools. Additionally, State Road Elementary School stands out with a 5-star rating and top 15% ranking in the state. These high-performing schools demonstrate that strong academic achievement is possible in the 48430 area.

However, the data also reveals some challenges facing the elementary schools in this zip code. Chronic absenteeism rates are significantly higher than the state average across all 5 schools, and free/reduced lunch rates vary widely, from 26.42% to 50.41%, suggesting pockets of higher poverty. Additionally, there is a notable disparity in performance between the two school districts, with the Fenton Area Public Schools consistently outperforming the Lake Fenton Community Schools on test scores. Addressing attendance issues and supporting schools with higher poverty rates could be important areas of focus for the community.
