Dakota High School is a public high school located in the Metropolitan Detroit region, situated in the suburb of Macomb Township, Michigan. The school opened in 1995 as the second high school in Chippewa Valley Schools. An overflow of ninth graders formed the need of a new Ninth Grade Center. However, as that building could not be built before the start of the 2007-2008 school year, Dakota ninth graders utilized a finished wing of the, at the time, brand new Seneca Middle School. Recently, the Ninth Grade Center has been opened and in use since the 2008-2009 school year.
