I love this school, I've been here since 6th grade. The academics aren't as bad as people say they are. With college prep it's okay, you can get help if you ask for it. This school is a safe space for queer students and students of color. Overall I think that this is a great school to make friends, memories and learn about important topics like, queer history, Americas history with colonization and climate change.

The Lehman Alternative Community school is very bad. I used to go there and they don't give punishments for anything!

LACS is a very safe and welcoming school. I have not experienced or been witness to bullying, breach of security or anything of that sort. We are prepared for a fire, severe weather and threat to the school if that ever occurred.
