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.

My experience at Lakeland regional High School has been amazing the past 4 years. I have made many accomplishments including, joining a few clubs, continuing my cheer-leading athleticism with my friends and family, and making many friends who have become family. The best parts of my experience is having time to talk to friends and having time to finish what you are told to do. I think the worst or not the best part is having so much security in the school with the ID policy, etc. But overall, I don't think anything needs to be change because everything has already changed over the past 2 years.

Lakeland is your typical suburban school. The diversity in clubs and sports is great we might not be the best but we have it. I love how the school is slowly getting an upgrade as the years go on. The involvement of teachers truly caring and reaching out to students could use some work to connect and nit shun anyone out. But overall decent school.

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.
