Summary:
The 49721 zip code area of Cheboygan, Michigan is home to 5 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Cheboygan Area Schools district. While the district as a whole is ranked 227 out of 610 in Michigan, the schools in this area show a mix of strengths and challenges, with Cheboygan Area High School performing well but the alternative Inverness Academy struggling.
Cheboygan Area High School stands out with its large student population of 609, high 4-year graduation rate of 95.6%, and generally above-average test scores, particularly in science and reading/writing. However, the school's math proficiency rates are lower, with only 20.7% of 11th graders proficient in SAT Math. In contrast, Inverness Academy, the smallest school with 79 students, faces significant challenges, including a lower 60% graduation rate, higher 11.4% dropout rate, and much lower test scores across all subjects compared to district and state averages.
Across the schools, common trends include high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 52.87% to 78.82%, and relatively high chronic absenteeism, from 17.4% to 28.2% at Inverness Academy. These socioeconomic factors may contribute to the educational challenges faced by some of the schools in the 49721 zip code area, suggesting a need for additional support and resources to improve outcomes for students.
