Summary

Lakeview High School in Saint Clair Shores, MI, serves approximately 1,319 students in grades 9-12 within the Lakeview Public Schools (Macomb) district, a suburban community where about 42% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Lakeview stands out most dramatically for keeping students on track to graduation. With a 95.7% graduation rate and a 1.8% dropout rate, the school far exceeds nearby Eastpointe High School (70% graduation, 19% dropout) and Roseville High School (81.9% graduation, 10.5% dropout). The school also excels in literacy—63.2% of 11th graders scored proficient on the SAT Evidence-Based Reading & Writing section, more than double the rate at South Lake High School (30.4%) and over four times the rate at Eastpointe (15.4%). This strong performance comes at a lower cost per student ($16,307) than several neighboring schools that achieve weaker results, suggesting efficient use of resources.

However, there are clear areas for improvement. STEM proficiency lags significantly—only 22.5% of students are proficient in SAT Math and 22.3% in M-Step Science, the latter being 13 points below the state average. Chronic absenteeism affects 29.2% of students, higher than the district average of 24.4%, though far better than Lake Shore High School's 61.4% rate. Notably, Lakeview outperforms Lake Shore—located just 2 miles away with similar demographics—across nearly every metric, including state ranking (60th vs. 41st percentile) and graduation rate (95.7% vs. 88.6%). The school serves its African American and Hispanic students well, ranking in the 59th and 64th percentiles statewide respectively, but special education students rank in the 10th percentile—a critical concern. After peaking at the 72nd percentile in 2022-2023, the school has settled into the 60th percentile, indicating solid but slightly declining momentum.
