Lakeland High School first opened its doors in September of 1990.  The School was designed for 1500 students.  The enrollment the first year was approximately 1200.  Lakeland was one of two high schools to open its door that year.  Lakeland's sister school is Nansemond River High School.  The two schools were built to replace four smaller high schools.  The school colors are light blue, navy blue and white.  The mascot is the Cavalier.

Lakeland High School is located on 214 Kenyon Road which is located directly off of West 58. Lakeland is built in an area of many lakes, from which Lakeland received its name.
