Best Public Schools in Zip Code 48860


Summary:

The 48860 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Twin Rivers Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 188 students. While the school is part of the Ionia Public Schools district, its performance has consistently lagged behind both district and state averages, ranking in the bottom quarter of Michigan elementary schools for the past three years.

Twin Rivers Elementary School faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.3%, low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that fall well below district and state averages, and a student population that is predominantly White (85.64%) with a high percentage (68.09%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite relatively high spending per student ($13,399) and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.9 to 1, the school has struggled to provide a high-quality education to its students.

The lack of educational options in the 48860 zip code, coupled with Twin Rivers Elementary School's persistent underperformance, suggests that families in the area may face significant challenges in accessing a quality education for their children. The district and community may need to explore ways to address the underlying issues at the school and ensure that all students have access to the resources and support they need to succeed.
