School is a good way to get ready for college and get students prepared for whatever the students next step may be.

I joined Lake Wales High School in 2023, it was probably the best decision I took. I was welcomed with open arms, all the resources that LWHS has really helped me improve academically. I learned important topics in all my clases, made new friends and got a chance to enjoy of my passion while attending this school. Definetly recommended.

In Lake Wales Highschool I believe my best experience would probably be in elective programs. They have a variety of choices and electives that many other highschools don't provide. I think the worst experience I had was when they got rid of our Academic H2H. Which was a time when we had a full 1-hour lunch that we could use to go see teachers as well as still have time to eat.

This school was such a tremendous disappointment! The teaching staff is fantastic and the offerings and communication and Special services department are also exemplary. My complaint is with administrators and social workers at this school. They do an extremely poor job dealing with children who may...

I agree that they have done an excellent job with my student, and with goals they have established and enforced, they are grooming students character and integrity as well as teaching the curriculum. I give this School, Administration, and most importantly Teachers the highest Marks!!!!

Lake Wales High School has a strong, dedicated leadership with a focus on the whole student as an individual. This school is headed nowhere but up.
