Summary:
The 48867 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Owosso Public Schools district. While the district is ranked 422 out of 610 in Michigan and has a 2-star rating, some schools within the district stand out. Emerson School and Central School are the top-performing elementary schools, with significantly higher proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the district and state averages. Owosso High School also stands out with a strong 92.1% four-year graduation rate, above the state average.
However, the data also reveals significant challenges in the district. Lincoln Alternative High School struggles with a low 35.7% four-year graduation rate and a high 14.2% dropout rate, while Owosso Middle School and Lincoln Alternative High School have alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.7% to 62.1%. These disparities suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the achievement gaps within the district.
The schools in the 48867 zip code area also face significant economic challenges, with free/reduced lunch eligibility rates ranging from 48.46% at Central School to 82.41% at Bryant School. This high level of economic disadvantage may contribute to the observed achievement gaps and challenges faced by the lower-performing schools in the Owosso Public Schools district.
