Summary:
The Oakridge Public Schools district in Michigan is home to two high schools: Oakridge High School and Oakridge Fusion. While Oakridge High School is a larger school with over 500 students, Oakridge Fusion has a much smaller enrollment of just 41 students.
Oakridge High School stands out as the stronger performer, with a 92.6% four-year graduation rate, a lower 6.4% dropout rate, and a 31.2% chronic absenteeism rate, all of which are significantly better than the smaller Oakridge Fusion. Academically, Oakridge High School also outperforms, with 49.5% of students proficient in M-Step/Science, compared to just 11.7% proficiency in SAT/Mathematics at Oakridge Fusion.
However, both schools face challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 62.75% for Oakridge High School and 78.05% for Oakridge Fusion. The stark contrast in performance between the two schools suggests potential equity issues within the Oakridge Public Schools district that warrant further investigation.
