District-Level NCES Analysis

Livonia Public Schools School District operates 26 public schools serving 13,228 students, placing it in the mid-size range in Michigan. The school portfolio breaks down into 12 elementary, 6 high, 5 other, 3 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 13,012 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Wayne County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,634 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 38.3% local, 54.5% state, and 7.2% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $75,439 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 59/100, ranked #216 of 756 in Michigan against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
