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.

Lakeland has been a very great place over my last 4 years. Some of the teachers are really great at going into depth about topics and making sure the students understand. On the other hand, a few teachers I have had were not the best at helping me fully grasp some things. Our counselors are amazing and really get us prepared for applying for college and building our future. I would not really say there is much I would change about my school.

I love my school very much. There are obvious aspects of my education here that I would change, but the overall atmosphere is very inclusive. The staff and the educators are very passionate about success and how to push you to go further. The coaches and extracurricular advisors are the parents away from home, making sure that everything and everyone is cared for.

This school does not prepare students for college. It is particularly lacking in its treatment of special education students as well. Teachers and classes need a complete overhaul.

I had three kids all go through Lakeland. All different levels of learning- but all good kids who tried hard and worked to their best abilities. The school was (overall) a decent place for them to learn. Obviously, as with everything… there are some teachers that are better than others. But overall...

Overall, we have been pleased. Like anything, you get out what you put in. Our child has chosen to participate in clubs and athletics to become well-rounded. He works hard and is challenged by the work.
