The majority of students are not proficient in reading or math and never have been as far as I know. In fact you may be wondering why teacher salaries are so high in this underachieving school district? While the Union is very strong, district admin is very weak. They tend to favor internal employees when filling positions when it is clear that outside expertise is desperately needed. While working there, principals did not hold teachers accountable and wrote favorable evaluations for either fear of backlash or to placate a colleague. They didn't even require teachers to plan together regularly in this district and still don't . That is amazing. . LGSD is by far the worst district I have ever worked for. I did not grow and develop professionally as a teacher should. Can someone explain why their scale is so much higher than other districts who are actually doing the work??? Now is the time to band together and hold the district accountable. If you don't, a year or more from now you'll wish you had.

We've been part of this school community since 2016-2017, and it's heartbreaking to see how much…read morethings have declined over the years. Many of the great teachers, staff, and families who once made this place special are gone. Unfortunately, morale among both parents and teachers seems very low due to poor leadership. This year was the final straw -- my son, a 6th grader in middle school, was physically attacked, and the response from staff was minimal. There was no real accountability or support. We've made the difficult decision to withdraw and move to homeschooling. Parents, please be aware: if your child is being bullied, don't expect much help here. Sadly, it now feels like this school is becoming a safe haven for bullies instead of a safe place for students. Teacher pay is low, class sizes are overcrowded (some with more than 40 students!), and children with disabilities aren't getting the support they deserve. And now, with the departure of our amazing principal, Dr. Ann Matthews, things seem to be getting even worse. The only positive is that all three schools share one campus, which is convenient -- but that alone doesn't make up for the serious issues, especially when it comes to student safety and bullying. Hemos sido parte de esta comunidad escolar desde 2016-2017, y es desgarrador ver cuánto ha decaído con los años. Muchos de los excelentes maestros, personal y familias que antes hacían de esta escuela un lugar especial ya se han ido. Lamentablemente, tanto los padres como los maestros parecen muy desmotivados debido al mal liderazgo. Este año fue la gota que colmó el vaso: mi hijo, estudiante de sexto grado en la secundaria, fue agredido físicamente, y la respuesta del personal fue mínima. No hubo verdadera rendición de cuentas ni apoyo. Tomamos la difícil decisión de retirarlo y comenzar la educación en casa. Padres, tengan cuidado: si su hijo sufre acoso, no esperen mucha ayuda aquí. Tristemente, esta escuela parece haberse convertido en un refugio para los acosadores en lugar de un lugar seguro para los estudiantes. Los maestros ganan poco, las clases están saturadas (algunas con más de 40 alumnos), y los niños con discapacidades no reciben el apoyo que necesitan. Y ahora, con la salida de nuestra excelente directora, la Dra. Ann Matthews, las cosas parecen empeorar aún más. Lo único positivo es que las tres escuelas están en el mismo campus, lo cual es conveniente, pero eso no compensa los graves problemas, especialmente en cuanto a la seguridad y el acoso escolar.
