What stands out about LakeVille Community School District

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +20.3% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Michigan's statewide +17.1% by 3.2 points, a growth rate faster than 67% of the 513 Michigan districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 1,140 to 1,062 students (6.8% down) across FY2019–FY2023 while the instructional salary pool per teacher went up. Districts on that path are usually holding staffing steady against a falling roll, which lifts the per-teacher figure without anyone getting a raise, so read this page's salary estimate alongside the enrolment line rather than on its own.
