What Parents Should Know

With a student-teacher ratio of 9.7:1, St Johns Lutheran School offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

Why doesn't this school have a score?

We don't have enough verified data to rate this school fairly. Private schools in MI aren't required to report standardized test scores to the state, which limits the data available for our rating model.

Our rating model requires at least 2 of 3 data components (academics, student progress, college readiness, and resources) to generate a meaningful score. Schools below this threshold receive a Limited Profile to avoid misleading ratings.
