Summary:
The 49076 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Olivet Community Schools district. While the schools generally perform at or above the district averages, their performance compared to the state varies, with some areas of strength and others where they fall behind.
Olivet Middle School stands out as a top performer, ranking 238 out of 883 Michigan middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the state average in 4th grade ELA and Math assessments and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.3. In contrast, Olivet High School has shown improvement, moving up from a 2-star to a 3-star rating, with strong performance on the SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing section but lower results in Mathematics.
A concerning trend across all three schools is the high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 29.5%, which may be impacting academic performance. While funding and resources appear consistent, with similar spending per student and student-teacher ratios, further investigation into the factors contributing to these attendance issues could provide valuable insights for the district.
