GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I had a good time at the school. The teachers there prepared me for highschool. But there were some teachers that were subpar with the other teachers. In general my experiance was amazing.

My son went to LPMS for 3 years. He had a fantastic experience, a lovely teacher and classmate. The school really helped him prepare for high school and later in life. One program that I enjoyed as a parent was the JA history work which taught students about how to manage money.
