Summary

Lakeland Junior/Senior High School is a public high school located in LaGrange, Indiana, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 764 students. The school is part of the Lakeland School Corporation district.

Lakeland Junior/Senior High School faces some challenges in student academic performance, with proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts (24.26%) and Math (22.77%) lower than the Lakeland School Corporation and the state averages. However, the school's performance for Hispanic students and special education students is relatively stronger compared to other Indiana high schools. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from 87.2% to 95.8%, and its chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state's average.
