I enjoyed LE middle. The classes can be challenging, and you can get a start on some high school classes early. Most of the teachers are pretty good, but some still need more training or help. There are various clubs that you can join.

There are so many students at he school that they have to use the the old middle school middle for class rooms and they call that building the annex that school needs to tear that building down and rebuild it from the ground up.

When I was a student at Lugoff-Elgin High School I had two teacher tell me "If I don't like you I don't have to pass you. There is a lot of prejudice at that school the school always caters to the preps and jocks non athletic people like me are left to fend for themselves. The food in the cafeteria is death it is so nasty I recommend you bring a lunch from home. The football team sucks I stop going to the games all together. The pep rallies are the most stupidest event ever. The school has their own news thing and it is so lame because they old let people with high GPAs to participate which are only the preps and jocks. I don't recommend this school to no one.

My child has been attending this school for 2 years now and any request or conern has been met with full attention. I'm very impressed with most of the teachers and the curriculum. They take discipline issues very seriously which I feel is extremely important.

I think this school gives students a high quality education in a good supportive learning environment. I have had no issues with the staff with the exception of one 8th grade science teacher which shouldn't be teaching but that's another story, all schools have those. The rest of the teachers have b...
