It has been excellent. LaSalle is a great, under-the-radar public school. I would willingly send my child there, regardless of whether he was in traditional or gifted. The environment is positive and caring. There are a lot of programs that support kids who are low income that most parents do not even know are occurring--I didn't know until attending an event to thank volunteers. It is also a school with a dedicated music, PE, library, art, and computer lab teacher. Many of the magnet schools do not have each of these teachers dedicated. We have been very happy here.
