Summary:
The 48809 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The schools in this area show a mix of academic performance, with Belding High School and Belding Middle School standing out as the top performers, while other schools in the area struggle with lower proficiency rates and higher chronic absenteeism.
Belding High School and Belding Middle School both demonstrate strong academic performance, with proficiency rates above the district and state averages in many subject areas. In contrast, Link Learning Virtual Program, the only virtual school in the data set, struggles with the lowest performance on state assessments and the highest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Across the schools in the 48809 zip code, there are significant disparities in key metrics such as spending per student, student-teacher ratios, and chronic absenteeism rates. These differences suggest potential inequities in educational opportunities and resources, which the Belding Area School District and the Berrien Springs Public Schools should address to ensure all students in the area have access to a high-quality education.
