I've had a really good time personally going to LaPorte high school. It's one of those schools where it's not really big and not really small. it's a good size for a school. I get almost with everyone there, and have a really fun time being in clubs and activities.

My overall experience with Laporte High school is probably the best experience I couldn't have with any other school. I have had the best and worst years of my life there, and I couldn't ask for anything more. I'm so glad to end my senior year here and look ahead to the future I will have outside of this school.
