Summary:

The 49261 zip code area is home to three schools - one elementary, one middle, and one high school - all part of the Napoleon Community Schools district. While the schools generally perform at or above the state average, they face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates and socioeconomic factors that may impact student performance.

Napoleon High School is another 3-star school that achieves a higher-than-average graduation rate and performs well on SAT tests, while Napoleon Middle School also shows consistent performance across the district.

Across the three schools, chronic absenteeism is a significant issue, with all three schools reporting rates around 29.5%, well above the state average. Additionally, the schools have varying free and reduced lunch rates, with Ezra Eby Elementary having the highest at 45.3%, suggesting that socioeconomic factors may play a role in student outcomes.
