We have had an amazing experience at HSES. My daughter is wrapping up her Kindergarten year and we have had nothing but positive experiences with her teacher and the administration! The new principal is wonderful, friendly, and cares deeply about the success of her students. Any issues are dealt with swiftly, and the communication from the school to parents has been excellent. My daughter goes to school excited to learn every day. As a parent, I am so thankful she feels safe and happy at school, not to mention how much she has learned and grown over this past year. I have nothing but great things to say about this school!

Great Middle School with Supportive Staff and Strong Academics!My child has had a very positive experience at LRMS. The teachers are dedicated, approachable, and genuinely care about the students’ academic and personal growth. The school offers a strong curriculum with a good balance of academics, arts, and extracurricular activities. Communication with parents is clear and consistent, and the administration is responsive and professional.The school environment feels safe, inclusive, and encouraging. My child has grown more confident, made great friends, and is excited to go to school every day. We’re really happy to be part of this school community!

This school is only good if you aren't a POC. If you are thinking of sending your minority child to this school please reconsider. Life is already hard enough as a minority in this country. Bring your child somewhere that allows them to make strong connections. If you aren't White and if you haven't been at the school since freshman year, good luck fitting in. There are plenty of biases among students and also the staff. The reason why their test scores are so good is because of the privilege White students have when it comes to building connections with their teachers. Notice how the racial makeup is 71% White? That's why they have a 9/10 and high test scores. Not to mention they manipulate final exam grades. Last year some people noticed their original final exam grades went up. Some teachers had given up on students to the point that they let us have multiple attempts on the finals. The principal and assistant principals always look like they are up to something. They are so bored that they stand in a circle and gossip about other staff and students. In most if not all of my classes, I am the only brown person. Sometimes I have gotten lucky enough to have 2 other POC in my classes. Some of the student-teacher relationships are unhealthy. They know nothing will happen to them so they speak freely about other students in a negative manner with each other. Your concerns will not be taken seriously and they will try to sweep things under the rug. Once you are persistent and don't suck up to them then they will know you are serious. Anyone can walk out of the building whenever they please. I've seen so many people skip and leave the building. Staff pick and choose when they want to take action and discipline. It just depends if they need to take their problems out on other people that day. If you aren't like them, they will never have your back. They will always stand up for one another. They protect their community. Please let your child have a positive High School experience and don't send them to this school. It may look pretty on paper, but the truth will show itself once you are enrolled. No school is perfect, but this school is far from being the best.
