6/5/2024
I really like teachers and content, though it is a very competitive environment and people can be quite cliquey. Additionally, some facilities are not very nice, but others are clean and fresh. Safety is great, and the sports and athletic experience are superb. Some teachers are good, and some shouldn't be tenured but are.

The culture is the worst part. There's big issues with vaping, alcohol, drugs, and sexual assualt.

I think that it is a really good school as far as public schools go. Many of the teachers are phenomenal and the school always does very well on standardized and AP tests. The only negative thing I have to say is some of the students have an elitist attitude but it is easy enough to stay away from them because the campus is so large.

The firs...

We moved to LGHS half a year ago with the hope to get a better school. Since then a series of bad experience happens which could fill a whole book. Newcomers definitely are NOT welcome. Snobby and selfish appearance is common. They don’t what to deal with concerns. You have to shut you mouth to get...
