Best Public Schools in Zip Code 49285


Summary:

The 49285 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools and 1 high school. While the schools in this area have some strengths, such as Heritage School exceeding state averages in certain academic areas, the overall performance of the schools is a concern, particularly at Stockbridge JrSr High School.

Stockbridge JrSr High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 235th out of 531 Michigan high schools in 2021-2022 to 432nd out of 743 in 2023-2024. This decline is reflected in the school's lower test scores and higher dropout rates compared to the state averages. In contrast, Heritage School has some stronger academic performance, with several grade levels exceeding the state averages in English Language Arts and Math.

Across the schools in the 49285 zip code, there are concerns about chronic absenteeism, which ranges from 15.6% to 30.8%. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, combined with the relatively low academic performance, suggests potential equity challenges in the Stockbridge Community Schools district. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to address these challenges and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the area.
