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.

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.

As a student at Lamar High school, I think it is really great. This school does good at awarding students for their accomplishments and there are many things to be involved in. Though, I would like to see the focus to be shifted from being heavily on sports to give some more attention and appreciation for other groups or clubs throughout the school.

I love my high school so much! We are a 2A school so we are fairly small which I enjoy. We get more one on one time with teachers and they also work really well with our sports schedule. And if you ever need extra help or want to improve your grade they will work with you no mater what as long as you show the effort. We are also very school spirited and all the sports teams support one another.
