Summary

LakeVille High School in Otisville, MI, is a small public high school serving 354 students in grades 9-12 as part of the LakeVille Community School District.

One of the most encouraging things about LakeVille is its strong and rapidly improving graduation rate. For the 2024-2025 school year, 90.4% of students graduated, which is well above the state average of 84% and a significant jump from 81.5% the year before. The dropout rate also fell dramatically, from 6.5% to just 2.3%. This shows a real commitment to keeping students on track. However, there is a clear gap between graduating and academic readiness. State test scores are concerning: only 8.5% of 11th graders were proficient in SAT math, compared to the state average of 26.5%, and reading proficiency dropped from 50.6% to 32.9% in just one year. This suggests that while students are earning diplomas, they may not be leaving with the same level of academic preparation as peers in nearby districts.

Chronic absenteeism is another challenge, with 28.8% of students missing significant school time—higher than the state average and much higher than the 10.8% rate at Millington High School, a demographically similar school just 8 miles away. Millington also outperforms LakeVille in nearly every academic subject, with science proficiency at 44% compared to LakeVille's 19.2%. This comparison shows that improvement is achievable within the same region. For parents, the key takeaway is that LakeVille excels at supporting students to graduation, but the school's leadership may need to shift focus toward increasing instructional rigor and addressing absenteeism to ensure a diploma truly reflects college and career readiness.
