Our family has been part of the Lamar Middle School community for just over a month, and I want to acknowledge how much has improved since our initial concerns. The teachers, counselors, and many parents continue to be the highlight of our experience. They are caring, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to students’ learning and well-being.After sharing concerns about safety and bullying, I recently met with an administrator, Mr. Phelps, and counselors, Owens and Sheridan, and I could not have asked for a more compassionate and professional response. They listened carefully, addressed each issue with sincerity, and made clear commitments to supporting my daughter. Their collaboration and follow-through have helped rebuild my confidence that the school is taking these matters seriously.It’s clear that the counseling team and Mr. Phelps are working hard to ensure students feel safe, valued, and supported. I especially appreciate the warmth and respect they brought to our meeting. It reflected the best of what public education can be when respectful communication and empathy are prioritized.While every school can continue improving in areas like consistency and front office communication, our most recent experience shows that Lamar’s staff truly care and are responsive when families raise concerns. We are grateful for their time, professionalism, and commitment to student well-being.

This school has been an incredible experience for our family over the past three years! We feel so supported by the principal, staff, and teachers. The strong sense of community is a real highlight, and the PTA's genuine care and continuous efforts to enhance the school – from the grounds to enrichment programs and equity initiatives – are truly appreciated. We also love the empowering leadership opportunities for the kids and the focus on kindness. We highly recommend this school!
