• ED has no 2022-23 chronic absence count for this school.
• ED’s own figures for 2022-23: 15.6% for its district and 33.3% for Michigan.
• ED publishes no 2022-23 four-year graduation rate for this school.

• A public special education school for grades K to 12.
• Open in NCES’s 2024-25 directory.
• NCES gives no 2024-25 count of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch for this school: NCES withholds it to protect students’ privacy.
• Around the school, a family with children aged 5 to 17 has an income of about 611% of the federal poverty threshold for its size (100% is at the threshold), by NCES’s 2021-22 estimate from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey of 2018-2022; its standard error is 214 points.
• That describes the school’s neighbourhood, which NCES says may differ from the neighbourhoods its students live in.

What the school reported to the Office for Civil Rights for 2023-24. These are the school’s own counts, not findings.

• Among the 12 nearest public special education schools in Michigan, within 18.2 miles, the middle value for chronic absence in 2022-23 was 36.7%; ED has no figure for this one.
• Students per teacher in 2024-25, by NCES’s counts: 0.2 here; the middle value among them was 4.6.

• Run by Lake Orion Community Schools, its local education agency in NCES’s directory.
• District spending, fiscal year 2024: Lake Orion Community Schools spent $16,801 per student, by the Census Bureau’s count of the district’s spending and its 6,745 students, of which $9,983 went on instruction and $6,312 on support services such as administration, buildings and transport.
• That is the district’s figure across all its schools, not this school’s own: its day-to-day spending on salaries, benefits, services and supplies, not on construction, equipment, debt or payments to other school systems.

• Federal school data don’t record findings against a school: the counts here are what the school reported, and the Office for Civil Rights’ own investigations aren’t included.

• Federal school data arrive one to three years after the school year they describe, so each figure here carries its own year.
• To protect students’ privacy, ED adds or takes away one at random from chronic absence counts of four or fewer, so a small count may be one off.
• ED publishes each school’s test results in reading and language arts and in mathematics, but they aren’t loaded here yet.

If you believe something here is wrong, a correction starts with the agency whose record this copies: NCES or U.S. Department of Education. NCES’s own record is on its school search. If Hearth Record copied something wrongly, it will fix it and log the correction publicly, with its date: how corrections work.
