Lakeview High School is a public secondary school located in St. Clair Shores, Michigan, serving students in grades 9 through 12 within Lakeview Public Schools .

History and district background Lakeview High School was established during the mid-20th century to accommodate post-war suburban growth along Lake St. Clair in Macomb County. As residential expansion increased local enrollment, Lakeview Public Schools centralized its secondary education programs on East Eleven Mile Road.

The city of St. Clair Shores is unique in that it is served by three separate public school systems: Lakeview Public Schools in the central area, Lake Shore Public Schools to the north, and South Lake Schools to the south. Each district operates independently with its own high school facility, administration, and elected board of education.
