School Overview

Lake Isabella is a quiet mountain community tucked into the southern Sierra Nevada, where the Kern River draws outdoor enthusiasts and the pace of life runs slower than in the valley below. Woodrow Wallace Middle serves the area's 6th through 8th graders, and while its academic scores sit below state averages, it's a small-town school where staff tend to know students by name and the surrounding landscape offers a genuinely unique backdrop for growing up. Families already rooted in the Lake Isabella area and drawn to rural, tight-knit living will find a school that reflects the close community around it.
