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.

I personally loved my high school experience at Lake Washington. I've basically spent most of time my time at school rather than at home, since I was involved in some many clubs and sports so I would be there for around 12 hours each day.

LWHS has great school spirit, phenomenal teachers, excellent staff, and great resources. I would only like to see more organization around college planning.

I had trouble connecting with other people. I think it is important to have more social opportunities than I was given- I think the teachers could have helped with that. I also think some of the assignments were unhelpful.
