Summary:
The 48457 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). The schools in this area serve a predominantly white student population, with a significant proportion of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage.
Among the schools, HillMcCloy High School stands out as the top performer, ranking 206 out of 743 Michigan high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. It boasts strong graduation rates, low dropout rates, and student test scores that are above the Montrose Community Schools district and state averages in several subjects. In contrast, the Montrose Alternative Education Center serves a unique population and has lower overall performance, with a relatively low graduation rate and significantly below-average student test scores.
The other schools in the 48457 zip code, KuehnHaven Middle School and Carter Elementary School, generally perform at or below the district and state averages in most subject areas. These schools also face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates, which may contribute to their academic performance. The data suggests that socioeconomic factors, such as the high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, may play a significant role in the overall performance and resource allocation across the schools in this area.
