Summary

Lakeshore High School in Mandeville, LA, is a public high school serving 835 students in grades 9-12 within the highly-rated St. Tammany Parish school district, and it has risen to become one of the top 5% of high schools in Louisiana, ranking in the 95th percentile statewide for the 2025-2026 school year.

What truly sets Lakeshore apart from nearby schools like Mandeville High School and Northshore High School is its exceptional support for all students, particularly those who need extra help. Lakeshore is a national leader in serving students with special needs, ranking in the 99th percentile, and it also excels with English Language Learners, ranking in the 93rd percentile. This focus on equity means the school is not just high-performing overall but is especially effective at closing achievement gaps. With a low student-to-teacher ratio of 12.6:1—better than most other area high schools—students benefit from a more personalized learning environment. Academic results are consistently strong across the board, with proficiency rates well above district and state averages in Geometry (85%), English II (85%), and Biology (82%).

Lakeshore’s story is one of remarkable improvement. Over the past several years, it has climbed from a 3-star school to a 5-star school, showing a much steeper upward trend than its peers. While Mandeville High School is also a top performer, it achieves its results with a larger, more affluent student body. In contrast, Lakeshore achieves top-tier results with a smaller, more diverse student population, including a higher percentage of students on free or reduced lunch. The school has also successfully reduced chronic absenteeism from a pandemic-era spike to a rate of 16.2%, the lowest among nearby schools and well below the state average. For parents seeking a school that combines high academic standards with a genuine commitment to helping every student succeed, Lakeshore High School stands out as an exceptional choice.
