This school has been amazing to me, from sports and academics to social life and teachers. Education and student involvement in this school is amazing. ASB and SCL is very well organized and puts together great events all the time. The teachers and involved and engaged and trying to make students better and push them towards their academic goals.

Overall a great school. Very academically competitive, but I suppose that's too be expected with Stanford so near lol.

So far LAHS has been a positive environment for me. I have been able to get the support I need physically, mentally, and academically. LAHS has sufficiently provided me with the resources I need and I enjoy being here. Only thing is that the Admin sucks and they have little to no clue what goes on in the school and what we need to succeed.

I believe the teachers and administrators do a good job. I don't know how to get my student motivated (I guess it has to be internal on his own) for learning and preparing for life after high school. I don't like an open campus where the students can leave campus in the middle of the day. I guess I...

Daughter is now a Junior.Principal Wynne Satterwhite is outstanding - I seldom meet such a hard worker. I know she works long hours and have amazing memory for many of her students!! Her counselors, teachers (e.g. Messner, Arias, Russo,Blach,Wei,Cathy) badminton coaches all deserve medals of honor!!...
