Very positive experience at Lomax. We are an upper class Caucasian family. We wanted a more racially and economically diverse school for our child than our neighborhood could provide so we opted for Lomax. We’re so glad we did! He flourished there. My favorite thing about Lomax is how much the faculty and staff encouraged our son to be his wonderfully eccentric self. Two years post-graduation, our child is on the high honor roll at his IB middle school.

I think the teacher's in this school have probably had enough with the disruptive children and sometimes take it out on the children who actually want to learn. They have no control over the kid's who's behavior are a hindrance to children who are trying to learn. Some children have to bring ear buds or headphones to class because of other students behaviors and how loud the others students are in order for them to focus on their work. Some teachers show favoritism to certain students. They dismiss when a child is actually being bullied when they tell them. I understand that you can't stop everything and it is also up to the parents as well to discipline their children about their behavior in school. Even the administrators and lunch room monitors show favoritism or treat other students differently because they know specific students and isolate or dismiss the other students who are different and who are trying to do what's right. We all may have been bullied in childhood and even in our adult lives. But, is it okay to have those same things happen to your child? Even after trying to be there for your child, giving them advice and talking to the teachers at the school and your efforts are still unheard? Why should my child be deprived of their education because teachers and other students lack discipline? Parents want to send their children to school to learn and interact with other children to grow and develop positive friendships for their self-esteem and social development. Children should not be filled with anxiety, feel unsafe, or have their concerns are not heard when they go to school. They need teachers and mentors to actually help students and parents need to step up and help the teachers with their children.

I am a former student. Things could’ve definitely improved since my time there. But, I went here as a child around year 2003-2005. The children were gross and horrible along with the staff who thought it was helpful to publicly paddle the children for situations that were not that serious, such as not being able to sit still, or in my case talking to another student. They took children to the park and left us unattended which allowed for me to be push by other children from a jungle gym resulting in a black eye. They would also force us to be outside and play in scorching heat resulting in my hand being burned raw from a 200 degree monkey bar. After these injuries they also decided to not inform my mother who had to come pick me up clueless as to what happened to me. The teacher would also show blatant favoritism to her own daughter (named julissa) who happened to be in my class, and she would do half the things other students did without consequences. Hopefully they changed that entire god awful staff. They had absolutely no patience for children and should’ve chosen a different profession.
