Livonia Public Schools School District serves 13,228 students across 26 schools in Wayne County, Michigan's urban-suburban landscape. The district experienced a slight enrollment decline of 0.5% in the most recent year, suggesting relative stability in a mature district with established capacity.
Academically, Livonia's 91.0% graduation rate exceeds Michigan's state average of 85.5%, while the dropout rate of 2.9% remains below typical state benchmarks. However, chronic absenteeism at 23.1% presents a notable challenge affecting student engagement and achievement outcomes.
The district serves diverse student needs, with 25.6% economically disadvantaged students, 14.1% with identified disabilities, and 5.5% English learners. Racial composition is predominantly White at 72.6%, with Black students representing 10.0%, Hispanic 6.8%, and Asian 4.6%.
Operating 26 schools with 834 teachers yields a student-teacher ratio of 15.9:1. Per-pupil spending of $15,761.63 falls below Michigan's state average of $17,165, despite a total budget of $208.0 million. This spending differential may reflect regional cost-of-living factors or funding structures rather than resource constraints relative to comparable districts.
The district maintains characteristics typical of established suburban systems: strong graduation metrics, moderate enrollment stability, and demographic patterns reflecting its Wayne County location.
