What are my chances?

So I just finished my first year of undergrad and a decently-sized Division II school in Michigan. Are my chances for getting into med school hurt by going to this DII school? I currently have a 3.945 (only because I got an A- in a very difficult honors english class), am in the honors college, in the pre-med club, was in community council, in band, am volunteering at a hospital over the summer and plan on continuing at another hospital during the school year and also hope to begin research this coming year as well as tutoring. I am a very good student (obviously, as all pre-meds are) I got a 4.0 in high school (public) and a 32 ACT (didn’t take SAT). Do you think (if I keep the same grades up…maybe just a little lower, I am taking organic and physics next year!) that I still have a chance at getting into a really good med school, even though I’m not at a very prestigious school?
