What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, March 26, 2019

Students at LHS are great, accepting and kind. Huge difference in what I hear it is at other LPS high schools. In the 2 years my child attended we encountered 2 teachers who seemed to care about his success. Individualized learning is foreign at LHS. Some teachers seem to be dialing it in - worksheets that look like I saw when I was in high school. Worked hard to get an IEP in place that was not followed. Support staff seem fearful of teachers, rarely advocating. Teachers not trained or choosing not to deal with out of the box students. Old school teaching mindsets. My son overheard his support person call him “annoying” under her breath. He arrived at LHS classified as gifted and talented/2exceptional and fell through the cracks. I truly hope LHS figures out that the “outliers” can be very successful if embraced. Embraced outliers: Gates, Zuckerberg, etc. Through the cracks outliers: drop-outs, drug attics, suicide victims etc. Close Quote
