Walled Lake Consolidated Schools district ranked the 69th highest in college readiness among Michigan school districts, based on its students’ performance on the math portion of the 2023-24 SAT, according to the MI School Data.

Math scores show that 40.2% of the 826 students assessed in the district were set for college at the time.

In the previous school year, 40.1% of 997 students tested hit the benchmarks.

The average math readiness registered by schools in Michigan was 26.3% in the 2023-24 school year.

Academic performance in Michigan remains below pre-pandemic levels. According to the 2024 NAEP results, the share of students reaching the basic benchmark in core subjects is about 10 percentage points lower than in 2019—except for fourth-grade math, which saw a decline of just 2 points.

Achievement gaps between ethnic groups also persist. On average, Hispanic students scored 15 points below white students. The gap was even wider for Black students, who scored about 30 points lower than their white peers.
