Summary:

The 49319 zip code area is home to three elementary schools - Cedar Trails Elementary School, Cedar View Elementary School, and Beach Elementary School - all part of the Cedar Springs Public Schools district. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and face some common challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates and a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the three schools, Cedar View Elementary School stands out as a consistent performer, consistently ranking in the top half of Michigan elementary schools with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the state and district averages in several academic areas, including 4th and 5th grade ELA, 4th and 5th grade Math, and 5th grade Science. Additionally, Cedar View has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 17:1, which could indicate opportunities for more personalized instruction.

While Beach Elementary School lags behind in 3rd grade ELA, it demonstrates strong 3rd grade Math performance, with 57.9% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Beach Elementary also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 18:1. Overall, the elementary schools in the 49319 zip code area face demographic and socioeconomic challenges that may impact their academic outcomes, but there are also pockets of strong performance that could be leveraged to support student success.
