U.S. News and World Report's 2023 public high school rankings identify Sturgis as the #4 public high school in the state, #179 in the country, and #48 charter school nationwide!
These rankings recognize and reflect our staff, students, parents, and trustees' commitment to our mission of IB For All. This year's rankings are especially well-earned, I find, as they are based on data from the 2020-2021 school year, which was a time when we demonstrated tremendous resilience and resourcefulness as a community.
Congratulations!!!!

Executive Director
