Overall I have found my time at Lamar High School to be very enjoyable. The academics are done well, although they are overshadowed by sports. The culture here is a bit down due to a rift between the student body and administration. This can lead to a negative atmosphere that can affect learning.
11/3/2022
it ok not the best around spends school funds on the wrong things if spent at all. About 75% of the facility is good the other 25% is not good.
10/31/2021
I like Lamar purely because I feel like the stress of big cities would be hard for me to get adjusted to. However, despite having plenty of opportunities, I feel the staff doesn't care about the students.

When I attended as a student, it was much better. When my child attended, he had a horrible experience.
