Loranger High is a decent experience overall. The school itself is pretty ragged and run down. The teachers as a whole are hit or miss, on whether they are helpful or not. The other students are definitely the highlight of the Loranger High experience. Sports are extremely important here, and the students show a great interest in all sports. Over my four years here they have had a new principal each year, and each different principal has a new set of rules with varying degrees of strictness.
