Lake Nona High School

What Lake Nona High School does

Lake Nona High School is a public high school located at 12500 Narcoossee Rd, Orlando, Florida, serving students in grades 9 through 12 within the Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) district. The school delivers a comprehensive secondary education with no tuition, free breakfast and lunch for all students, and free electronic transcripts, supported by a broader academic, athletic, arts, and student-services portfolio. Academically, the school offers Advanced Placement, Cambridge/AICE, and a Collegiate Academy, alongside dual-enrollment partnerships with the University of Central Florida, the University of Florida, Valencia College, and Orange Technical College that allow students to earn college credit while enrolled. Specialized career and technical education pathways include Health Sciences Academy, Law Enforcement, Agriscience, Digital Media, and Project Lead The Way STEM tracks, plus Visual and Performing Arts programs (Band, Chorus, Orchestra, Theater, Visual Arts).

The school runs on a district-provided technology stack rather than proprietary systems: Canvas serves as the learning management system, Google Workspace for Education supports classroom productivity, Xello powers college and career planning, ParentSquare handles family communication, Skyward Family Access operates the student information system, and SchoolCash Online manages fee payments. The LaunchED 1:1 digital device program distributes laptops or tablets to all K-12 students in the district. Student support is staffed via dedicated roles including five school counselors, a SAFE (Student Assistance and Family Empowerment) coordinator, a school social worker, and discipline and parking administrators, all operating under Principal Mrs. Nikki Campbell.

As a public school, Lake Nona High School has no commercial revenue model and is wholly funded through OCPS district allocations and state education funding. Enrollment occurs through the OCPS district enrollment portal, with transportation provided to eligible students. The school's competitive position rests on its geographic attendance zone within the rapidly growing Lake Nona master-planned community, its portfolio of college-credit and career-academy pathways, and its affiliation with the broader OCPS brand.
