I recently graduated from Leavenworth Senior High School, and I believe that many of the teachers there are there to help and teach students. While there are quite a few teachers who do not care or think about how certain things can affect their students.

It was very interactive and nice to be in, I would, however, say that they can be very lax about online bullying otherwise though the admissions are very proactive

The best parts about my experience of going to Leavenworth High School is that there is such a strong connection in our student body, and everyone supports eachother. The worst part about going my experience of going to Leavenworth High School is how technically induced we are. I would appreciate more hands on lessons instead of most of our lessons being online. Something I would like to see more of is our school spirit. I feel like over the years our school spirit has gone down, and I would like to see a different outcome.

There is very little learning. Loud, on cell phones, teachers loudly talking about students where everyone can here, students can do anything they want and nothing happened

Looking at attending Leavenworth High? DON’T. The administration doesn’t respond to parents. (phone calls and emails never returned, as well as activity telling parents lies when directly asked a question) The school ignores its own policies consistently, and chooses rather to place students in harm...

terrible, the school is emotionally terrible, at least 3 bomb threats per year, constant fighting is a very common thing, constant drug use among students, drug searches, favoritism, and uncaring teachers.
