First, I will say as a very seasoned healthcare worker who has risked my own health to protect those in our community and have enjoyed helping others for over 15 years, I am disgusted with the lack of integrity these public workers have for the management of meeting the needs of disabled children. The administrative, social work and IEP team at LME do not prioritize and/or are unable to recognize (or frankly disregard) the needs of children with disabilities. They act as if they know more than board certified physicians and therapists in determining a child’s diagnosed disabilities and needs. Their decision making skills are on par with the antivaxxers of our COVID pandemic who use doctor google and wikipedia as trusted sources for decision making, while also protecting their own pride at the expense of a child's needs.Some of the teachers are excellent but many play the puppet game and lie to support the false claims of their leaders at the cost of the children. Why? Because it costs money to provide services and it’s difficult to admit your decision’s are failing a child because that means you have to take a hit to your pride. Sadly they cant afford either, so the kids suffer. If you send your child here, know that if you fight them for something your child needs they will try to strong arm you and disregard your child's needs because they take personal offense to being called out on there carelessness and they will battle you to save their pride and money they are already struggling to maintain. If you are meek this is not the school for you. Do your research and temper your expectations.

This school is good, I think it is just the students though. Barely any of them go to school for learning and then blame the teachers when they fail its really funny I’m not gonna lie

You don't learn much and if you do its stuff you do not need to know for college at all. The students are rude and dont care about you in anyway. There is pretty much a fight everyday maybe even 2-3 times in a day. Some of the teachers are great and lighten up the mood but you only see them once. They block you from the wifi so you cant use your phone for class if a teacher tells you to unless you waste your own data for it. There is not much support and everyone acts like 5 year olds.
