However, the school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 90th to 429th out of New York high schools. This suggests that the school's performance may be influenced by factors beyond just academic achievement, such as changes in the state's assessment system or the school's demographics. Additionally, the school has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism, from 13.2% in 2021-2022 to 15.8% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern that the school may need to address. Overall, Lansing High School is a strong-performing school with several key strengths, but it also faces some challenges that the school community may need to address to maintain its academic excellence.
