5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLORD OF THE FLIES HS-- Courses are taught down to the slowest student in the class. Drug deals are made in the hallways. Bathrooms don't work and haven't been repaired in years. The teachers are mostly incapable of controlling their class and do not teach what they claim to on their syllabuses. The administration is hopelessly at the mercy of aggressive students who run the school like groups of thugs. If your child is bullied they segregate him/her as they have no courage to stand up to the bullies. Go someplace else!Parent Review3y ago
