Summary

LaSalle High School is a public high school located in Saint Ignace, Michigan, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 161 students. The school is part of the St. Ignace Area Schools district, which is ranked 355 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

LaSalle High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Michigan high schools, ranging from 391 to 524 out of 531 to 739 schools over the past 10 years. The school has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years, with a brief period of a 1-star rating in 2021-2022 and 2020-2021. While female students at LaSalle High School perform better than male students, and Native American students perform relatively well, students from low socioeconomic backgrounds perform below average compared to the state. The school's graduation rate has fluctuated between 81.7% and 91.4%, and its dropout rate has ranged from 7.6% to 13.1% in recent years.

Interestingly, the closest neighboring school, Cheboygan Area High School, which is part of the Cheboygan Area Schools district, consistently outperforms LaSalle High School in terms of statewide ranking, graduation rates, and academic proficiency on state assessments. This suggests that factors beyond geographic proximity, such as district resources and student demographics, may play a significant role in a school's performance. Additionally, LaSalle High School has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 22.5% to 32.2% over the past few years, which may be contributing to the school's overall academic challenges.
