This School’s Reviews

4.0 Junior

9/1/2024

Pretty nice school but there are definitely not many opportunities for students to be challenged just because of how small the school is.

I had a great overall experience in my time at Saranac Lake. I was a two sport athlete for all four years of my high school career. I was in the new vision education program, which was an amazing program that helped me pave my way into the education field.

4.0 Freshman

6/28/2023

The best parts about the high school are the music department, the athletics, and the extra curricular(s). The worst parts are the teachers don't teach in each learning style to help the academic success of all of there students.
