Our school is small, only 2A. Because of that, we get more 1 on 1 with our teachers which is very beneficial for learning. They care about the success of each student & want to see us succeed in anything we aspire to do. The downside to a small school, is that we don't have a lot of sports/clubs to pick from & recruiters from big colleges don't typically scout there. Our community is very supporting though, & any fundraisers are always successful. There is a sense of belonging at Lexington. My mom & I moved there when I was in the 6th grade & I was immediately welcomed with open arms. My graduating class has 64 students, & I feel as though we are very inclusive as a whole, even though there is not a lot of diversity. Overall I have enjoyed my time at Lexington & would recommend it to anyone looking for a smaller school to attend.

Lexington School is a good environment, but because it is such a small school, there are limited opportunities to expand your horizons.

Lexington is a perfect blend of learning and friendship. I moved to Lexington in the 9th grade, and I have to say both students and teachers welcomed me with open arms!
