Lake Wales high school taught me a lot about life things .The teachers was nice and caring .The food was ok but mostly healthy thing .Being on the basketball team taugut me about leadership skills .

I've been at LWHS for all four years and I think it's the perfect mix of private and public schools. The staff are strict but not harsh, and the education is difficult but not hard. However, I wish there was more diversity because in Lake Wales the city is diverse, but not its main school.

This school has a good IB program, but the teachers could be better. Also, the school environment does not feel safe or comforting.

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.
