I am a former student of LCHS. I graduated 2009. I attended this school for three years. The students were rather small minded, as were some of the teachers. I found that if you were related to the 'right people' or had the 'right name' then you would be treated a whole lot better than anyone else. Teachers

I am a former student of LCHS. I graduated in 2007. LCHS is a good school in my opinion. It might not be the best school in Georgia, but I believe that the administration is trying their best. Give them a break, they get negative comments from so many parents and students, but no one is offering to help

I think it's a lot of political things wrong, and I think Dr. Mallard realizes it, and she is trying her best. I'm proud of LCHS and for those review that states that they are not preparing for us for college, how wrong? I'm in college with a 3.75 GPA, and I know others that graduated along with me could say about the same. --Former Student Read less

Like many of the previous posters, I'd have to say that Long County is still operating by the archaic and debasing 'good ol' boy' system. When I attended for a year in the 11th grade (I transferred my senior year), I found that academics were placed on the back burner. I knew more about my teachers at

I did anything I wanted after being friends with the 'right' people who had the 'right' names. People get too comfortable, and therefore the standards get relaxed. It comes with being in a small town. This one, at least. Now that I'm older, I realize it was the best possible scenerio for me to get out of their as soon as possible. Read less

LCHS is a pretty good school. Some of the teachers can relate to how the students are feeling, and they try to help us through the problem. The classes are relatively easy, but then again I'll be only a Sophomore when the time to go back to school rolls around, so I have 3 years left, which is 3 years

There are many who have graduated from LCHS to complete college. The apathy is present in many students because their parents don't DEMAND good grades and attendance. The teachers teach and it is up to the students to do their share of the work. I am sick of the world talking about the Long County School

The education is there, the administration is there, and the opportunities are there. It is up to the students to take advantage of them all! The administrators, teachers, and counselors will help any student that asks. Does it take too much effort to ask? Read less

I am a teacher at LCHS. We have a fantastic school and those of you who complain should have to walk a day in our shoes!

I went to Long County from fourth through twelfth grade, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I go an upstate college, and my classmates are always shocked when I describe the school to them.

Also, we were never told anything about scholarships, SATs, or the FAFSA-- as a first-generation college student, this could have been a great problem for me. Most of all, Long County did not prepare me academically for college. A student doing LCHS-level work would flunk out in a heartbeat-- if they bothered going. Read less

I am currently enrolled at LCHS and I do believe that we have positive and negative sides of our schools.
