This high school, like many others gives you a chance to be yourself and find those who best fit with your likenesses. A school full of opportunities and greatness that all kids should have for education. I enjoyed the teachers and the culture, yet not so much the involvement of the community.

Le Mars high school has always been good for academics although they spend a lot of money on athletics. The academics have always been amazing and have gotten so many awards. The teachers are amazing with students and will work with them.

Le Mars Community, a place to call home. LCHS gave me an education that was at a very prestigious level compared to surrounding schools. This helped me challenge myself and improve my ability to learn.
