Summary:
The 49072 zip code in Michigan is home to two schools, Mendon MiddleHigh School and Mendon Elementary School, both part of the Mendon Community School District. While the schools serve different grade levels, the data suggests they are both underperforming compared to state averages on key metrics such as statewide rankings, test scores, and graduation rates.
Neither school stands out as a clear standout performer, with Mendon MiddleHigh School ranked between 288 and 468 out of 735-743 Michigan high schools and Mendon Elementary School ranked between 1032 and 1142 out of 1470-1488 Michigan elementary schools. Both schools have low 2-3 star and 1-2 star ratings, respectively, from SchoolDigger. The schools also struggle with low test scores, with both performing significantly below the state average on M-Step, SAT, and PSAT assessments across grade levels and subject areas.
Additionally, the schools serve a socioeconomically disadvantaged population, with high free/reduced lunch rates of 41.86% at the high school and 52.5% at the elementary school. While the elementary school spends more per student ($14,757) compared to the high school ($13,699), the student-teacher ratios are relatively low at 15.6 and 11.6, respectively, suggesting that factors beyond class size may be contributing to the academic challenges faced by these schools. Overall, the data indicates a need for improvement within the Mendon Community School District to provide a higher-quality education for its students.
