Summary:

The 48618 zip code in Michigan is home to two schools: Coleman Elementary School and Coleman Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Coleman Community Schools district. While the high school performs relatively well, with a 3-star rating and a higher statewide ranking, the elementary school lags behind, ranking in the bottom quarter of Michigan elementary schools and receiving a 1-star rating.

The high school stands out with a strong 4-year graduation rate of 86.8% and lower dropout rate of 5.2%. Academically, the high school outperforms the elementary school, with 53.8% of 11th graders proficient or better in M-Step Science and 43.6% proficient or better in M-Step Social Studies. In contrast, the elementary school struggles, with only 27.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in M-Step English Language Arts and M-Step Math.

Both schools have a concerning lack of diversity, with the high school being over 94% white. Additionally, the elementary school faces high chronic absenteeism rates, which may contribute to its academic challenges. While the high school spends more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio, the data suggests a need to investigate the factors behind the disparities in academic performance between the two schools and implement targeted interventions to support student learning, particularly at the elementary level.
