Summary:
The 48723 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. These schools are part of the Caro Community Schools district, which is ranked 399 out of 613 districts in Michigan and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Among the standout schools in the area is Caro High School, which is ranked 113 out of 735 Michigan high schools and has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.8% and a low dropout rate of 7.6%. The school also performs above the state average in some test score metrics, such as 11th-grade M-Step/Science and SAT/Evidence-Based Reading and Writing. Another notable school is Highland Pines School, an alternative school with a high 4-year graduation rate and low dropout rate, but it also spends significantly more per student ($103,203 in 2018-2019) compared to the other schools in the area.
However, the data also reveals some concerning trends across the schools in the 48723 zip code. All schools have a high chronic absenteeism rate of around 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools generally perform below the state averages in most test score metrics, with Caro High School being the exception in some areas. The wide range in spending per student, from $6,467 at Caro Alternative High School to $103,203 at Highland Pines School, suggests potential disparities in the allocation of resources and funding among the schools.
