Summary

Churchill High School in Livonia, MI, is a large public school serving 1,227 students in grades 7 through 12 as part of the highly-rated Livonia Public Schools School District. The school has earned a 5-star rating and currently ranks 74th out of 800 high schools statewide, placing it in the 91st percentile—a remarkable jump from its previous rank of 145th just one year earlier.

What truly sets Churchill apart is its dramatic improvement and its success with all groups of students. The school jumped 71 places in state rankings, the largest gain among its peers—far outpacing Stevenson High School (up 19 places) and Canton High School (up 9). Churchill now ranks in the 92nd percentile for students from low-income families and the 91st percentile for English Language Learners, a massive improvement from the previous year. This broad-based success extends across nearly every demographic group, suggesting the school's recent gains are systemic and not just a one-time fluke. The school also invests more per student ($18,415) than its district rivals, which may help explain its recent success. In science, 11th-grade proficiency soared from 36.9% to 54.3% in a single year, far exceeding state averages.

However, parents should be aware of some challenges. Chronic absenteeism affects 30% of students—higher than the district average of 23.1% and peers like Stevenson (24.6%) and Canton (22.7%). The graduation rate of 89.7% is solid but trails Stevenson's 98.9% and Franklin High School's 95.3%. Still, Churchill's performance is a stark contrast to nearby John Glenn High School in Wayne-Westland, which has just 10.4% SAT math proficiency. For families seeking a school that is clearly on an upward trajectory and excels at supporting diverse learners, Churchill is an increasingly strong choice.
