La Salle High School Reviews

The school talks a good game, but does not deliver. Boy's sports are horrible (except basketball) not in talent but in leadership at the sport, AD and overall philosophy handed down by the President and the top donors. Academically, there are several good teachers who care, there are many that have no clue what or how to teach. There are a lot of cliques and a lot of disrespect. Tough year for La Salle students to get into UC schools. You are really being prepped for Private University at twice the price.

I started at the summer institute and have to say that I really love this school! Although I may be entering as a freshman, I took three classes during the summer and have found my teachers to be very encouraging, the students friendly, and the campus very beautiful. My second school of choice does not compare to La Salle. I'm extremely excited to join the Lancer community this fall!

La Salle is a great school, both my daughter and my son love the faculty and administration. Our yongest daughter will be attending La Salle this year. We highly recommend La Salle.

The school looks great when you are visiting and stuff and everyone tells you great things, but once you actually go there, its not how it sounds. The kids are not very nice and it is very clique-y. THere arent that many activities to do-i dont like it very much.

My teachers care about me and I know hat I am being prepared well forcollege. The administration gives me the opportunity to be involved in social justice programs.

The teachers are dedicated and wonderful, all of the students like it. The classes are the perfect size and always engaging. The zero policy for drugs and alcohol is a one of a kind program. It's great how supportive everybody is, and there is something for everything.

I will be entering La Salle High School in the fall as a freshman. I know many people who are attending, have attended, and will attend my school. Having just completed the summer academic institute, I have had a chance to live in the La Salle community on a day-to-day basis for a while. It was completely apparent from the first time my mother and I, as a prospective applicant, set foot into the school that La Salle is, for one, extremely organized. From the Open House to the Acceptance letters to sending Newsletters during the summer to keep you informed, La Salle is top-notch. In addition to being organized, La Salle has a beautiful campus. During summer school, you could see small birds nesting in the trees around the campus and hear the small chirps of baby birds as they were being fed. I am proud to be a Lancer!

I legitamitely liked this school when my daughter began attending it. Once in school though , she came home telling me how everyone was so cliquey and how a lot of the students mistreat their fellow peers. I was very mad so I decided to visit the school. When I got there as a normal visitor and not as an incoming parent, I saw how the school was so cliquey and how disrespectful the students there are. I did not want my daughter attending this school after I observed how the La Salle High School community really is.

My oldest daughter attended this high school and graduated in 2005. The administration is great, the facilities are beautiful and the curriculum is solid. The quality of individual teachers varies but appears to be gradually improving.

La Salle is a great school. The academic possibilities as well as the religious environment allow for a vigorous learning experience.
