Do not send your kids here. They claim to be college prep but the only reason it is is because you have to teach yourself. The faculty is petty and does nothing to help students. It is all about who your parents are or how much money you donate to the school. They violate contracts and do nothing when people meet with them about it. If you want a good education do not go there.

Staff does not help students when they come to them, they expect students to do online work when the WiFi never works at school, all money goes to football
7/3/2018
The fact that the school has a higher than average ACT score than our public schools probably has little to do with the teachers at Lamar and more to do with the students and their backgrounds. Some of the teachers could care less and their attitudes are a reflection of this. The administration is fully aware of these problematic teachers, but they refuse to deal with them. Lamar truly needs new administrators and a new Board.

Do not send your child here. The adults are bully’s. They violate contracts and don’t care. They only care about a student if their parents are in the popular circle of adults. The only reason they are college prep is because students have to teach themselves.

I attended Lamar from K-12, and now my daughter is in pre-k. I cannot stress how much she has learned in just a short time, and how wonderful the faculty has been. Best decision ever.
