Lake Shore Public Schools is a public school district in the Metro Detroit area. It is one of three school districts in St. Clair Shores, Michigan. Lake Shore is the northernmost district in St. Clair Shores.[1]
History
In 1919, the district's board of education voted to add secondary education to the district. Lake Shore's first graduating class was in 1924.[2] In 1925, a dedicated high school building was built. It quickly became overcrowded and a bond issue to fund expansion was requested two years later.[3] The 1959 Lake Shore High School yearbook had a picture of a new high school.[4]
International student center
Through an agreement with Beijing Haidian Foreign Language Experimental School, a private school in China, the school district hosted Chinese foreign exchange students. In 2011 the private school and school district signed an agreement to work solely with each other lasting 21 years. In 2012 there were 70 Chinese students enrolled at Lake Shore High School. The district charged $13,000 per year for each Chinese student, with $8,411 funding tuition and about $4,000 for other expenses such as busing, lunches at school, field trips, and housing.[5]
The Taylor Building International School and Dorm was used for after school Chinese curriculum classes taught by teachers from Beijing and a dormitory. The dormitory includes motion sensors used at night to separate boys and girls; the private school requested that these sensors be put in place. The Taylor building used a former elementary school that had been last renovated in the 1970s. The district spent $640,000 to convert and renovate the building.[5]
