GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My time at The Louisiana School for the Agricultural Sciences was nothing short of amazing. The overall vibe at the school is great. Even though the teachers may be strict, they are very good at preparing you for college or working a trade.

LaSAS is a great school to get you prepared with the main goal in starting off you life after graduation. They explain and work with you with anything and quide you in the right direction.

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.
