What i liked about Lafayette County was that the teachers are always there when you need them even if something is due most teachers give you time to make it up some even let you do it online at home i have gotten very familar with doing it both online and in class but it only confuse me that why should we have to do it in class and also online i mean like we should be able to get at least some slack like not having to go to that class if you for surely going to do it online . I mean that's why they gave us a choice virtual or school but yet we still have to do the same work we doing in class online but have to add more to it because its online.

There is nothing that I like about Lafayette County High School. The teachers don't teach and its like a zoo up there. Its so much trouble and all of the kids are always getting into some kind of mess. The things that I wish would change would be that the teachers need to start teaching instead of sitting on their lazy butts not doing anything.

I love my school. There's no place I'd rather be. I grew up in the area and I know everyone here so it's like everyone is family. We learn a lot, go on fun trips, and get to experience a lot that many others don't.

School has went from being a great learning place to a school filled with horrible teachers and officials. The teachers target the students and when the try and tell the dean of students the get denied access. If this school dosen't change the enrolllment like the test scores will surely deminish.
