Response to Oct 2008 post. Hopefully you did not graduate from LHS. Reread your paragraph. '...higher teacher...' should be '...hire teachers...' and '...supports there teachers...' should be '...supports their teachers...' You are quite critical considering your own limited intelligence. The fact that

If, as you claim, the coaches 'are only there for a paycheck' wouldn't they be working for a higher paying district? Your comments make no sense. Read less

I have had one student graduate from LHS and two are currently at LHS. We have lived here for 10 years and I have never been happy with the school district. If I could have afforded private school I would have transferred each of them without a doubt. The biggest problem is the fact that they higher

We finally have a good football coach, but the coaches for other athletic activities are only there for a paycheck. Very disappointing and dissatisfying. I do volunteer and do what I can but the administration supports there teachers no matter what is done. There is never consequences for bad behavior of the teacher.

We thought it was a great school until we transferred (after 2 yrs)to a private high school in Beaumont and found out the 'advanced classes' our child had been excelling at in Lumberton were on level with their 'basic' curriculum.

The school is growing bigger each day. It is doing its best to keep up with its growing demands. Teachers and coaches do their best, but I feel they hire young inexperienced coaches because of lower wages.

Lumberton High School can claim to be technically above average but that is about all. It is a totally unimaginative school district.
