District-Level NCES Analysis
Arbor Preparatory High School operates 1 public schools serving 280 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Michigan. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 high schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Washtenaw County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,857 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 83 of 821 Michigan districts by per-pupil spending. See how Michigan compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 30.6% local, 57.7% state, and 11.6% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 69/100, ranked #92 of 707 in Michigan against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 1 schools offering Advanced Placement (9 AP courses district-wide), a 347.5:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 62.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 50.4% African American, 19.8% White, 15.1% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.

Arbor Preparatory High School accounts for 99.3% of all Arbor Preparatory High School student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Arbor Preparatory High School a distant remainder — means Arbor Preparatory High School-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Arbor Preparatory High School student-counselor ratio is 348:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Arbor Preparatory High School is typically wider than the Arbor Preparatory High School-aggregate figure suggests.
Arbor Preparatory High School chronic absenteeism rate is 62.9% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
