Summary:
The 48413 zip code area is home to 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school, spanning several school districts. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with potential disparities in resources and student outcomes influenced by factors such as school size, location, and socioeconomic status.
Bad Axe High School stands out as a top performer, ranking 218 out of 743 Michigan high schools with a 4-star rating and a relatively high graduation rate of 94.9%. Similarly, Bad Axe Middle School is ranked 480 out of 1,486 Michigan elementary schools, with strong performance in English Language Arts and Math. In contrast, Ascent High School, an alternative high school, has a lower graduation rate of 68.1% and a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 42.3%, likely due to the unique challenges it faces in serving a student population with a higher percentage of minority and economically disadvantaged students.
The smaller, more rural elementary schools, such as Adams, Verona Mills, Big Burning, and Church, have limited data available, making it difficult to assess their academic performance. However, these schools generally have lower student-teacher ratios and higher per-student spending, suggesting potential challenges in resource allocation and the need for further investigation into their performance and the factors that may be influencing it.
