Summary:

Zip code 48757 is home to a single high school, Reese High School, which serves grades 9-12 within the Reese Public Schools district in a small, rural Michigan community.

For parents considering this area, Reese High School offers a solid, mid-tier academic experience with notable strengths in literacy and humanities. The school ranks in the 62nd percentile statewide (307 out of 800) for the 2025-2026 school year, a step down from its 80th percentile peak in 2023-2024 but still comfortably in the top half of Michigan high schools. With just 254 students, the school provides a small, close-knit environment, though the 19:1 student-teacher ratio is slightly higher than the national average, meaning class sizes may be a consideration. Academically, the school shines in English Language Arts, with 58.5% of 11th graders proficient on the SAT EBRW (well above the state’s 52.1%), and 10th graders posting a strong 67.8% proficiency on the PSAT ELA. Social Studies also edges out the state average. However, math is a clear weak spot, particularly for 9th graders, where only 15% are proficient compared to the state’s 33.5%—a nearly 20-point gap. Science proficiency (33.8%) also trails the state (35.2%).

Beyond test scores, the school demonstrates resilience and strong student engagement. The graduation rate is a healthy 88.1%, outpacing the state’s 84.0%, and the dropout rate is just 5.0% versus 7.1% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is a standout metric at 17.0%, far better than the state’s 27.9%, suggesting students are consistently showing up. This is particularly impressive given that 40% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, indicating moderate economic diversity. One intriguing pattern is the “9th grade math cliff”—proficiency jumps from 15% in 9th grade to 28.8% by 10th grade, hinting at effective intervention programs. Keep in mind that with such a small student body, year-to-year score swings can be volatile, so focus on the school’s overall trajectory rather than any single year’s results.
