Outstanding Teachers, who have prepared my son for his future. Excellent choices of AP classes and many chances for college test preparation. The band is top notch.
One of the best in the state, compared in my opinion only to Lake Brantley in terms of overall programs, sports and facilities. The students primarily come from those that reside in the city of Lake Mary (though some come from Longwood along Markham Woods). The sports programs outside of football tend to be among the top tier in the state and they are now starting a law magnet program that should attract an even more studious group of kids. Like any other public school, you'll get some great teachers (science and math) and not so great ones but overall a great school.
Excellent alternative to the crime ridden Seminole High School. We pulled all 4 of our kids out of Seminole High school due to the horrible neighborhood,fights,drugs and lousy teachers..Lake Mary is 100% better. Better teachers,Better enviroment, better everything. Next to the YMCA, A Park and the County Library. Great kids. Great School. Yes the Football Team is bad..but I would not trade Seminoles State Championship team loaded with future convicts for the great school of Lake Mary.
average overall rating; some very good teachers and some absolutely horrible! Seminole County needs to fire the bad teachers and reward the good ones.
Both of my kids hav attended Lake Mary High. My daughter has since graduated and my son is in the 9th grade. I'm pleased with the school itself. I like the PIN program to keep up to date on grades and in contact with the teachers. I don't care for the FCAT, but that doesn't have to do with LM, it's a state thing. Overall, I'd definately recommend Lake Mary High School! GO RAMS!!!
I am a student at Lake Mary and I love it. I feel that the math department is very very good, but some advice: you get much better teachers if you take AP classes. Overall it is a wonderful school and I wouldn't go anywhere else! Go Rams!
I have two daughters who attend Lake Mary High School and I am very happy with the school but, there could be some improvements made. Lake Mary has a very weak math department. Many students have math tutors. Our children are there to learn and the teachers are there to give our children the best education they can. I am fortunate to have kids who can teach themselves. Overall it's a good school.
I'm not a parent, I'm a student, and personally, I love it here! The pupils here are great, the education is awesome, and the teachers (though tough) help you a lot!
Two of my three sons graduated from Lake Mary High School. It was a great experience for both of them. The students were wonderful to my older son who was a transfer student in his senior year. The teachers and coaches could not have been more helpful and mindful of his situation. The academic experience was one that I would not trade for anything. Some front office personnel could have been nicer but did not have to deal with them on a daily basis. The principal was a prince of a person.
My daughter transfered here for the 2005-06 school year and she has never been happier.
