GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This school is terrible , I experienced having them have my child followed and also taking pictures of her in the morning a night time just to prove if she was from that zone school campus. My child has great grades and does sports as well . It's terrible they feel like they can do that an makes me very uncomfortable for kids who go to this school. My child is minority and clearly decided to this investigation without no real reasons why . They said someone could have went an basically said something about my kid not being from that school , but to sit here and have my family tailgated an have pictures of them is unethical and clearly shows how racist this school is , if your a family of color I would watch my kid very carefully here or not even bring them their at all

It's a normal high school. There's a lot of focus on sports, especially football and track). I find the school overall to be a good experience, but it really depends on the people that you go to school with. The teachers are mostly really nice and understanding and really helpful. One thing that I would like to see changed is better internet and improve the building itself.

I like Lyndhurst High School because of the classes and technology it provides. For the most part, the teachers are good at their jobs. The school is clean and has many activities. One thing I won't like about the school is the lack of AC units.

LHS is like most schools, you will get out of it what you put into it. If you are looking to skate, you may be able to. If you want to learn, you will. There are excellent teachers here who will go over and above for their students, there are also many who sit on their tenure, again, not like any ot...

As a student of this school I as well as others agree that the teachers don't teach well and some of them fail to teach and just give us videos. The new iPads we got are very cool and allow us to progress in education but on the other hand many kids just use it to play games. This school can certain...
