Teachers can create lessons encouraging students to think for themselves and solve problems. The school can help students decide about college, careers, and future planning. Students can play a more active role in their learning, and learning can encompass more than subject-matter knowledge.

They offer good education, a good environment, a good staff, and completely understanding to your needs. I wish they would add sports and study hours.

When my son started LaSAS, it was great. Debbie C. Bain, no longer is the principal of this school. LaSAS is failing to provide my son with a quality education. The new principal, comes from Caldwell Parish School District. He is not a leader but rather a dictator who only cares for 1 input! So many...

I am a student at LaSAS and i can say that my school is the best so far. I have been to many other schools and this is hopefully the last school I go to to because the teachers are unbelieveable and they help you and they try to make thing right for you.
