As a teacher i tried my hardest to help all students but repeatedly ran into trouble with helping struggling students. Administration did nothing to aid in creating a better learning environment for struggling students. Administration is obsessed with what race students are in every statistic it is all about “well why is this race not succeeding?” Overall i would say pick any other school you could over L. Gilbert Carrol

Dr. Watson and his staff are a joke. They have repeatedly discriminated against my child who has a learning disability and have not given him any type of respect. They keep trying to get him to perform on grade level when they know he has a disability. They are purposefully delaying his IEP services and none of the staff truly care about the children. They are very rude to the children and they treat them like they are not human. I don't recommend this school to anyone. They would be better off at home.

Out of all the teachers I have had so far (I'm a junior this year), they have all been wonderful. They're always willing to help out and help a student understand the material, when students ask for extra help. Most teachers are also willing to stay after school in case someone needs to make up work or needs extra tutoring. However, I have heard of a few teachers who aren't so great (personality, teaching-methods, etc.). A few of the administrators are disliked by many, and some of the school policies are pointless, which they selectively enforce (i.e. dress code, mainly). The guidance counselors are extremely helpful and are always willing to work with students. They make sure you're on track for graduation, which is extremely reassuring. There's also a wide variety of clubs and sports to chose from, so it's very easy to get involved and find other students with similar interest. Large student body (about 2,000), so you'll get the chance to meet plenty of people. The food sucks, though. Overall, I am happy I attend LHS, and I would recommend it to someone looking into high schools in the area for their child.

My school houses some of the greatest minds of our time. Our teachers are our most reliable resource and our administration is top notch
