It is an amazing school, highly recommend!!

My son has got bullied ever since he was in third grade and the teachers done nothing about it

The school doesn't truly care about your well-being. Many of the teachers treat kids unfairly and some of the administrators and counselors are so pompous and self-centered that none of them really care about what the kids are saying, only "it's just a rumor." The kids here are not great either. So many of them are entitled, spoiled brats who talk behind each other's backs and whenever there's any problem, they scream and cry and yell like a 5 year old. The school has gotten worse since COVID-19. I remember before COVID-19, the teachers and administrators actually cared, the school was more fun and had more accommodations, and it actually seemed like it was worth its money. Now, there's no reason to even go here. They pay 20,000$ for tuition. How is that fair?? That's even more than their OWN partner high school, Bishop Gorman. Not only that, but despite all that money, the accommodations and just overall resources given to the kids is laughable. The school lunches have given food poisoning before, their chicken tenders are literally pink. Compared to other private schools, like Faith or Meadows, they give so many more accommodations, their schedules and schools are so much bigger, and overall the students would genuinely be happier. So many students here are already miserable, spending their time with the same grade of 60 people for over 8 years. If you get unlucky and you get someone that you don't like in your class, you have to deal with it. You don't get to request your classes, and sometimes they will KNOW that you hate someone, and yet they still put you in the same class. Unlike normal high school schedules (or really what other private middle schools use), you have a 9 period schedule, and you sit with the same class. You could possibly have the same kids for 36 weeks, disrupting the same classes, to the point where you could do nothing and the teachers could still hate your class. Not only that, but the school ends so much later. Unlike normal schools, which end at around 1:00-2:00 P.M., the school ends at 3:32 P.M., which not only makes scheduling so much harder for kids who have siblings in other schools, but the day just feels so much longer and so much more grueling. The elementary school at LVDS is not bad, at least from my perspective, but once you get to middle school, I think you would be better off going somewhere else. The middle school program here is lackluster, unengaging, and overall just not worth your (extreme amounts of) money.
