I have three children at Lipscomb...two in elementary and one in middle. I also have a child in the public middle school. So, I can compare directly.

I'm a former student at Lipscomb, attending between the 7th and 12th grades, so I know a little about the programs. Admittedly, things may have changed since I graduated in 2003, but my guess is that they haven't. Lipscomb is a school that emphasizes the social aspect of adolescence. I don't know

I'm not saying that there aren't good teachers at DLHS. Hagewood, Tracy, Smith, Lindsay are all great, but I've found that the supporting cast is less than sensational. I enjoyed my time at DLHS, but I really enjoyed the people more than the school. Read less
