School is falling apart in some spots, but it is getting repaired in spots. The building is old. The school is very small with less than 70 students in high school. There are a good amount of sports and school spirit. Sports are doing very well in competitions.

What I most loved about coming to Lake Michigan Catholic was how close every person was with each other. Before I came here I was recently at a public school and I didn't know every person compared to LMC. Where as I knew everyone and everyone knew me. They were are so welcoming as I first walked into the doors and still continue to be.
