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.

The 2 and a half years I have had LCHS have been wonderful I've met so many amazing people every teacher is always willing to help with whatever subject you need help with you could honestly walk in any classroom and get additional help if you need it. Our school also offers tutoring from upperclassmen (Link Crew). We also have a lot of clubs that keep people involved along with whole school activities such as football games and rallys this things engage a lot of people including the staff. We also do is senior appreciation we have a whole rally dedicated to them and we also have rally's dedicated to clubs they do performances for the whole school. Another thing that I love about our school is the admin they are always someone you can count on to help you along with the counseling team without them nothing would be possible even if one of them isn't your counselor you can go to anyone of them. LCHS is a wonderful school and I'm going to miss it very much when I graduate.

Laguna Creek is a well established school with a strong community and family friendly faculty. My daughters went there all 4 years of their high school career and went on to higher education.

Firstly, I was not expecting much out of public schools, but the staff surprised me in a pleasant way. They were all...

The teachers here are easily the best part of the experience. They really care about their students. I graduated last year and I still wish I was back. School was the best place for me. It's a very safe school, despite rumors to the contrary. In my four years there I only saw about five fights and a...
