The staff is usually very consistant with the rules and if someone breaks one of the rules, proper punishment will be enforced. The school has a zero tolerance for bullying, and we enforce a strict dress code.

The school is hard pressed to keep teachers because any time a teacher tries to assign any work that takes longer than 5 mins students complain and will refuse to do work so in most cases many of the teacher give in and just seem to go threw the motions while other were able to fight the students and get them to do the work but those were few and far between.In the year before me i have heard from a student that there was a teacher who graded quizzes solely by if you filled everything out or not and a student just put names of foods on the lines in a social problems class and obtained an A.

The teachers give the assignments and expect the student to do...

They quit teaching new stuff (That has to be taken) after sixth grade. I've learned more from the internet and book then they teach. Best to keep your kids away from...

Fully aware, everywhere we go in life we run into ups and downs. Therefore, L-M alone, is no different than any other school; one thiing making each enviroment different is the individuals who characterize it. Which, my school is very significant to me, as are all individuals involved. L-M may not b...
