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.

My overall experience with Lemars Community High School has been positive. Some of the teachers have a really strong connection with their students, while others don't. I would like to see a change in that aspect, where all of the teachers try to build strong connections with their students.

I enjoyed my time at Le Mars Community. The class sizes were not too large, the teacher-to-student ratio was always manageable. I transferred here from another school and was dazzled by the number of new opportunities and clubs. Great theatre department and college preparedness.

Teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviors and achievements; and they know the importance of getting the parents involved should an issue arise, and do it in a very respectful, approachable manner.
