I am a parent of sophomore this year. At beginning of last year my child transferred from a small school of 500 students to Logan of 4,500 students so we were concerned. However, Logan has made many efforts since last year to install 20 security cameras which are operative by Oct.09. Even though last

Also I heard from my child that even though the security guard checks the ID's, some students can get off the campus easily. Academically, Logan has much room to improve in their curriculum. Most of the teachers do care and would spend extra hours to help the students, however, there are a few that are just there to make their time. Athletics is an A+ Read less

This school is very unorganized and very overcrowded. School starts too late, so school ends late. Some teachers are very willing to help you, most don't even care. Definitely not a school you would want to go if you are transferring because no one will help you. I dislike this school and hope to move

I personally dont think Logan is that great of a school. It seens as if teachers make a big fuss over athletes but any other student they see as a whole not as individuals. Students are often categorized and it's understandible to a certain degree. The athletics department is great and there are over

As for the new security mesures, the advisors have gone too far. Fights are going to happen. Peolpe can still get off campus if they wanted because the so called security guards are too friendly. The whole showing an i.d. thing is crazy. I think the next thing they will try to do is scan our id and if we miss alot of school they will say we cant graduate. Read less

The school makes a great effort to make the students, staff and campus a lot safer. Their security mesures may seem drastic but it was just what logan needed to become more appreciative of their campus. The community also now sees the school as being safer and more focused.

This school is great and some people think there are too many problems, but that is not the fault of the school. The school is great it's just that certain students don't know when to get serious and when to joke around, myself included.

Anyone who attends this fabulous school, as I did once upon a time, is very fortunate to have a school that has so much diversity not only in the curriculum but as well as the staff and students.

Logan is one of the best public schools in the Nation. For the student body, to be the size of a jr. college, security handle itself. Now this is a High school with just a little over 1000 kids. Logan has not had that issue and yet they have over 4000 students. Great school, with great programs to teach
