As someone who transferred in as a Junior, I can say that my highschool experience improved significantly at Lafayette High School. There is a strong sense of community within Lafayette that I did not experience at my previous high school. The sports teams are highly competitive and successful. My AP teachers have done a fantastic job preparing me for the AP exams at the end of the year, while also keeping their classes fun and motivating.

Teachers do not care about students and will not be there for you when completing college applications. They disregard student's emotions and instead provide them with heaps of busy work during the most stressful time of the year.

Honestly, overall not bad. Definitely a lot of misbehavior that admin doesn't know how to deal with. The counseling staff is severely lacking — never have I ever left an interaction with any of them with (a) any questions answered or (b) any sort of faith in them or joy remaining.

Communication sucks. They love to spam you with emails and voicemails that aren't relevant to you, but when you have an actual question or concern, you are totally ignored. Good luck getting a response, it's incredibly rude and frustrating.

Excellent teachers, rigorous academic options, and plentiful sports opportunities and leadership options. Great location. Loved my years at LHS both as a student, athlete, and later as an intern.
