Summary:

The 49286 zip code area is home to three elementary schools - Tecumseh Acres North Early Learning Center, Herrick Park Intermediate School, and Patterson Intermediate Learning Center - all part of the Tecumseh Public Schools district.

Among the three schools, Herrick Park Intermediate School stands out as a top performer, ranking 320 out of 1,486 Michigan elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades, and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.7. Tecumseh Acres North Early Learning Center also performs well, with a consistent 3-star rating and a low student-teacher ratio of 15.4.

However, the data reveals a significant performance gap between the top-performing Herrick Park Intermediate School and the lower-performing Patterson Intermediate Learning Center, despite being in the same district. Additionally, all three schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5%, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. The differences in per-student spending, with Patterson Intermediate Learning Center receiving the highest funding, indicate that resource allocation may not be directly correlated with academic performance.
