The best thing about our school is the generosity- a feeling of home somewhere else. I found this in making friends, playing sports, and joining clubs.

Great technical and arts programs that offer students a broad range of exposure to college and career options, everything from ag science, welding, auto body, and electronics to health careers and music/theater.

My experience there was great, I was the president of the theater club and participated in the 5 productions the school does every year. The school funded part of our cost to go to the State Thespians Festival in Kansas, so that was very generous of them. Overall, I love the campus, and the teachers are really dedicated to helping the students succeed.

I went to LCHS from 2002 to 2005. Like most kids in school I hated it. But looking back now I know it is the best school in the area.
