Ovid-Elsie Area Schools

The Ovid-Elsie Area Schools district in Michigan consists of 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district's standout institutions are OvidElsie High School, which consistently ranks in the top 25% of Michigan high schools, and Leonard Elementary School, which is among the top 15% of Michigan elementary schools.

OvidElsie High School boasts a strong 94.3% four-year graduation rate, well above the state average, and its students perform above the district and state averages on standardized tests, particularly in Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and Social Studies. In contrast, the district's alternative high school, OvidElsie Community EdAlt High School, faces significant challenges, with a lower graduation rate, higher dropout rate, and much higher chronic absenteeism compared to the other high school.

The data also reveals socioeconomic disparities within the district, with Leonard Elementary School and OvidElsie Community EdAlt High School having significantly higher free/reduced lunch rates compared to the other schools. These disparities may contribute to the performance gaps observed between the schools and highlight the need for targeted interventions and support for economically disadvantaged students in the Ovid-Elsie Area Schools district.
