The community at Lick Wilmerding is so strong and beautiful. Everyone on campus is always very welcoming and kind. LWHS is an amazing learning environment, and I’ve loved every second of it!
I've really enjoyed my time here. I've learned a lot and know I've grown a lot as a person. Although there are a few things that I might fix, they aren't things that aren't already being addressed or actively being fought for by students. In terms of finding like-minded people, there are so many students and adults to help you throughout your time there. The shops are really a great experience because it's not something that one typically learns how to do, and it gives you a break in the middle of the day to do something creative in a way that most have never done before.
The academics are tough but personally, I haven't thought that it's ever been impossible. You learn how to write and how to think, and those prepare you well for college.

The campus at Lick is amazing, and the main building was recently renovated. The academics are very good, but the tech and maker's shops on top of everything else are what make Lick unique. There is a classroom, or shop, dedicated to each of the following: tech, woodworking, metalworking, and electronics/jewelry making. There is also a big library, as well as multiple labs and art classrooms. The teachers won't hesitate to make time meeting with students to help them, and the students are very self-driven and motivated, in school and outside with extracurricular activities. Lick is very progressive and conscious, and this is fostered by the guest talks and assemblies outside of the classroom. The sports, dance, and music programs are good. This is the most diverse school in the Bay Area, racially and economically. Lick is also very conscious of how to make sure you are feeling accepted in the community. The upperclassmen to a great job of welcoming in the newer students.
