Our 2 Kids did great there at Lamar.

I would not recommend Lamar Junior High based on our experience. My daughter reported serious bullying, and despite multiple emails and calls, the response from both the school and district was slow or nonexistent.There was a clear lack of urgency, communication, and follow-through. No clear plan was provided to ensure her safety, which is the most basic expectation for any school.Bullying directly affects a child’s well-being and ability to learn, and it should be taken seriously every time it’s reported. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.I hope the school improves its processes, communication, and accountability so other families don’t go through the same situation.

My son was sent to this school for his summer school. He was so excited to go to summer school. After, the first day, I ask him how his day went. He told me that "the principal said I am too expensive to be in summer school". I asked him why would the principal say that. His response was "I don't know, may be because I am the only student with a brown face in my class". There was a mix up in his summer school registration and he had to be with the principal for a while that first day, until things were sorted out. To say I was shocked was an understatement. Why a principal would make such statement to a child (he's PreK) baffles me. I followed up with that principal, she apologized and said she couldn't remember saying something like that to him. But he had a very nice experience with his teacher. When I asked about his teacher, he responded "My teacher is really nice and is not like my principal". He didn't want to go to the school the next day until I assured him that he wouldn't be with the principal again. Thankfully, he's not a regular student in that school and I can't wait for him to finish the summer school and leave the school
