Overall, MSL is a smaller school, being connected along with the middle school. This doesn't allow for as many classrooms to offer a larger variety of programs and AP classes. Along with that, the MPS free lunch program, from personal experience, does not work in practice. Without a set menu and variation, many students do not get enough or do not eat at all. The teachers that I have met have all been wonderful people, adults that I can come to with any academic issues for classes.
