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.

I have been given a well-rounded educational experience. LaFayette High School has given me opportunities to be involved in other areas of school besides just the classroom. I have made new friends and learned that I want to be in the Marine Biology field.

I personally love my Highschool. I am in the first group of the scholar's program. This program started my freshman year, and it is purely dedicated to preparing me for college and beyond. They have taken us to tour schools, helped us with the application process, and given us insights into what college may be like. This program has also given me rigor classes that have prepared me academically. I feel so prepared to start my next step in life thanks to Lafayette and the scholars program.

I can only say it was a ok school. I would like to see changes in all students being treated equal not just because they have money or know people. They need to focus on all students that are interested in going to college.Communication needs to be better with parents on college information not just the students. We are teenagers trying to enjoy our senior year plus some plays sports so yes we still need help from our parents not just to put it all on us. We are still learning how to be adults.

Rumor has it they allow teachers to violate rules! Another rumor alleges a teacher adopted an adult former student. How could that even be legal? Remember these are the people in charge of educating your kids. Exactly what kind of education are they giving?
