i am a 7th grade student at LCM. This school is more bad than it is good. There are bullies, low test, scores and students may not learn as much as they need to. This school has a good side too. Teachers do there best to encourage students to want to learn, there are many clubs and extracurricular ativities.

I have a 12 year old 7th grader, and I have so far been pleased with Lewis Chapel. My child belonged on the Explorers team. I was very pleased with two teachers in particular, Ms. Canteen and Mr. Gilchrist. These two teachers went beyond simply educating my child, they formed a relationship with

The worst thing that my son had to say about the other 3 ladies is that they make him study. Good for them. At first I was very concerned about seding my child to Lewis Chapel and had considered Ann Chesnut but I wasn't sure about the whole year round program. I am very glad I made the choice that I did.

I'm a seventh grade student at LCMS and yes, sometimes bullies get off easy and yes, there are fights, and yes, we aren't the best school in cumberland county.

We actually have a forensics group of about 5-7 people, we were the smallest group but guess what we pulled off 1st place in dramatic interpretation. All of our students placed that night and none of them were last. Our orchestra got to play with Fayetteville State University so why are we getting all the negativity. I'm in forensics and orchestra. Read less

My daughter is a 6th grader at this school and since the beginning of the school year there has not been one day that my little girl has not told some story about so and so got into a fight or someone mouthed off to the teacher.

Those who are not doing what is expected of them to pass and succeed should be repremanded, the school refuses to take the appropriate measures when it comes to desciplining its students. Fact is the students don't fear the consequences so THEY run the school. Read less

The school is very lacking in bringing out the best in our kids as far as discipline and leadership goes.
