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 feel like the best part is just the support I have received from teachers and some students. I feel like the worst parts are where I let people get under my skin which causes me to react and then become consequences. I would love to see more pep rallies to get students more involved

My time at LCHS has definitely been a roller coaster. I've had many good times like going to football games, helping underclassmen to classes, going to assemblies. But I've also had my bad times like not having my voice heard by teachers, having rough moments with a few students. I wish there was more diversity in the school and that the activities were more fun for students to get involved with.

As a senior, I can not say that I had the full High School experience. This school has expelled more kids this year than in past years due to fights and bullying. This should not be okay. We should not be forced to worry about when the next fight will break out, or when we will get put in a hold in place because of a fight that happens to break out in front of everyone. It's not fair to the other students and the staff doesn't do much about it.
