Lorain Admiral King High School is a public high school located in Lorain, Ohio. It opened in 1961 and is named for Lorain native Admiral Ernest J. King, Chief of Naval Operations during WWII. It is one of two high schools in the Lorain City Schools district (the other being Southview High School). In 1995, due to declining district enrollment, the school district closed cross-town rival Lorain High School, and merged the student body and student records into the Admiral King High School facility. As a part of the merger, Admiral King High School was renamed Lorain Admiral King High School. Currently Lorain Admiral King is separated into three independently administrated "small schools":

LAK Global Enterprise Technology, Principal Steven Sturgill
LAK ExCEL - School of Experimental Commitment to Excellence in Learning, Principal David Hall
LAK Renaissance - The School of Excellence, Principal Marilyn Stano

The school's colors are navy blue and gold. The mascot is the ram, and the sports teams are known as the Admirals. The school is a member of the Lake Erie League. The tunes to the school's alma mater and fight song are "Navy Blue and Gold" and "Anchors Aweigh", respectively.
