Summary:
The 48640 zip code area is home to 14 schools across two school districts - Midland Public Schools and Bullock Creek School District. The schools serve a range of grade levels, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 4 high schools, and 1 alternative school.
Among the standout schools in the area, HH Dow High School and Woodcrest Elementary School are ranked highly in the state, with strong test scores and academic performance. Jefferson Middle School also stands out for its consistent performance across various subjects. However, the data reveals significant differences in academic achievement, with some schools, such as Central Park Elementary School and Windover High School, struggling with much lower test scores compared to state and district averages.
The data also suggests a correlation between socioeconomic factors, such as the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and academic performance. Schools with higher free/reduced-price lunch rates tend to have lower test scores. Additionally, the consistent high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% across all schools is a concerning trend that may be impacting student learning and achievement. The wide range in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios indicates that the schools may have access to varying levels of resources and funding, which could also contribute to the differences in academic performance.
