Bottom line: This school with all its money and beauty is horrible unless you are looking to be unsuccess in anything but sports or arts. There is absolutely no encouragement what so ever to be strong in academics. The lack of encouragement causes the students in this school to simply not care either which causes the curriculum to be dialed down to the level at which chimpanzees could probably understand it. Just go to another high school, any other high schools.

Excellent teachers who love teaching in this school. Super art, music, dance and drama departments. Kids are great and take school seriously. This is an environment where learning and achievement are highly valued.Downside is very competitive parents who in my opinion put way too much pressure on the kids concerning the college admissions process.

Teachers at LBHS are excellent in the following areas; teaching, availability of time to students. Parents can daily review grades of student, if there are questions about grades or assignment s you can go to a secure web site and find out what is needed. Also you can e mail the teacher and generally receive an answer back that day. Guidance Counselors are very active with the students (and with parents if they choose to do so) and truly what your teenager to excel. Many sports are offered and there are weekly updates. The school/PTA and School Power sponsor many events to inform parent as to issues are relevant or need addressing...now. Like most High Schools there are continuing problems at the same time LBHS keeps parents informed it is up to the parents to be involved. Also students must complete a number of community service hours prior to graduation. Although this district is blessed with more money than most, anyone who lives within the boundaries can attend and if there is a need for free lunches or other free services most likely you will find them at LBHS. I do wish students had to wear school uniform's due to differences in social class.
