Lake Lehman Junior Senior High School in Lehman Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania was created by the merger of a Junior High School, which provided an education from grades seven to eight, and a High School, which did the same for grades nine to twelve. The two schools were combined in 2003. The school is located in a rural setting.

Most classes consist of 30 or fewer students. Basic classes are offered for everyone, but the school also offers advanced courses, and Advanced Placement classes for college preparation.
