My daughter loved Lamping ES. Her teachers always went above and beyond for her and helped with learning difficulties after being home during Covid. Principals are visible and great with the students. The school is also so beautiful and well maintained. Possibly the only school with a science center and amazing resources for STEAM learning!

I am writing to formally express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the unsafe conditions at this school. Due to a series of unacceptable incidents involving my child’s health and safety, I will be withdrawing them from this institution immediately. My child has life-threatening allergies to animals. Despite this, the school property is poorly secured, allowing wild animals to wander on and off the premises. Furthermore, staff or visitors regularly bring pet dogs onto campus. As a direct result of this exposure, my child has repeatedly returned home with severe allergic reactions, including a persistent runny nose and dangerously swollen eyes. The quality of the school meals is consistently poor, with food being served either raw or burnt. To ensure my child had a nutritious meal, I began sending them to school with a packed lunch. However, my child was targeted by bullies who stole their food, leaving them to go hungry. When I brought these bullying incidents to the school’s attention, no corrective action was taken. The lack of supervision during meal times and the failure to address my child’s safety concerns are inexcusable. A school should be a sanctuary for learning, yet the environment here has proven to be hazardous to my child's physical and emotional well-being. I expect a formal acknowledgment of this complaint and an explanation as to how these safety gaps will be addressed for the remaining students
