Paul Laurence Dunbar High School

Picadome has been so wonderful for my two daughters. All the teachers we have interacted with seem to be truly invested in the education of the children and promote them to become lifelong learners. I am so thankful to be apart of this wonderful learning community. There are many family events throughout the year along with a spring carnival that we always look forward to! I can't speak highly enough of this amazing school!

Stonewall is an amazing school with teachers and staff that truly care about each child.

This school helps a lot nicest teachers.

We had a terrible experience at this school which continues to scar our child. Despite having an OT make recommendations for appropriate sensory interventions, Ms. Katherine continued to treat him like he was just having behavioral issues and would not attempt any suggestions from the autism professionals. Thankfully we removed him from the school and found another preschool who was truly amazing and gifted in working with “exceptional” kids.

We selected LCA 3 years ago before our older son began middle school. He started his journey with LCA when the new sixth-grade academy opened. His younger sibling also transitioned to the Sixth- Grade Academy most recently. We feel that middle school and high school years are critical to ensure children receive not only rigorous academic and extra-curriculum programs but also solid spiritual and social foundations. LCA’s commitment to the students and families have helped both of our children to thrive and excel academically, as well as to continue to develop strong character and lasting friendships. Our children are happy and doing well and it is clear the school environment plays a big part in their well-being. Choosing private school is a huge sacrifice for most families, but at the end of the day, it can be life-changing for the kids. We look forward to continuing to partner with LCA for the remainder of the secondary education for our children.

Was beaten in the parking lot by another student and the teachers didnt care. Was villainized by my teachers for literally everything. Was taken to the vice principal because my math teacher lied and told him i was gonna shoot up the school. i wasnt. (this is now on my permanent record) Was not allowed to ask for help or clarification. If i raised my hand me along with others were told to put our hands down. Essentially, I was treated horribly. I was a child trying to learn. I left the school after 7th grade.

14:1 student/teacher ratio? My children have been there three years, the teacher ratio was 28:1 until COVID, now it is 20:1 for social distancing. I would surmise that it will jump back up when everyone comes back to in person learning. Very little communication from the teachers but with such a horrid staff/child ratio who can blame them? Maybe those extra teachers focus on just the top end students but my children have not had the benefit of that attention. I am leaving this school after the year is over, my children are thrilled if that says anything.
