Lapeer High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 235 out of 735 Michigan high schools in 2022-2023 to 338 out of 739 in 2024-2025.

However, the school's per-student spending of $14,529 is higher than the state average. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% may be an important focus for the school to improve student learning and achievement.
