GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

When I first got to Lake Nona High School I was trying to get back into my routine after being online for my full year of eighth grade, and I was very academic driven to do all the stuff I needed to do, but unfortunately, my freshman I was entered into an AP class and I didn't feel like I was ready for it and I did not have the best teacher to help me. I did not end up doing well on the AP exam. However, that just pushed me to do the best that I could do and for the rest of my high school career, I took on more classes during classes, online and entering into Valencia Dual Enrollment program for the last two years high school and I'm planning on getting my AA in the spring of 2025.

I've had a really good experience with lake Nona highschool. I'm a student-athlete with straight A's. The teachers and administration are amazing and show their dedication to the students and job. The school spirit is out of this world and the sports are great. Coaches are amazing and show care for the athletes future. I get a lot of support from my teachers, friends, and coaches.

In my experience so far at Lake Nona, there are a lot of great teachers who care about their students and education, as well as the school staff and administration. However, there are always teachers who don't.

There were over 4k kids attending lnhs. Although it’s rated an A school, don’t let that fool you (it did when i moved to the area). The...
