I have been coming to lamar County Schools my entire life. Lamar has had some issues in its school systems but things are becoming much better........... Im proud to be a Trojan!!

The schools are getting better every year as we get better administration & faculty in general. Scores are going up. I have had 3 children graduate from LCCHS with honors and all went onto good colleges. The current graduating class is full of many students who have already been accepted to top colleges many with academic scholarships. (UGA, GA Tech, Wake Forest, GA Southern the list goes on and on - and that is just this year's graduating class) If your child is doing poorly in this school system you may want to stop blaming every one else and take a look in the mirror. I noticed for years when I went to the Open House & Parent nights there weren't many people there. It is the school's job to offer your child a good quality education it is the parents job to be sure your child takes advantage of it.

This school needs a lot of improvement. things have gotten even worse with the new principal. These teachers can't control their students, but it's not entirely their fault. The disruptive students are sent to administration, the ISS or OSS doesn't do any good. They just come back and disrupt class again. Its miserable to try and learn with some teachers, and like one student had stated earlier, we're assigned work that's graded and are expected to learn it ourselves. The students who want to learn are too overwhelmed, and the students who are only there because they have to be just don't even bother with the assignment in the first place.
As a teacher, I can say that we DO care about our students. However, we try to teach our students the importance of following guidelines, as well. Why fight dress code issues? Simple. We don't enjoy seeing underwear (or lack of) or cleavage. If and when parents help us by teaching children to be respectful and responsible, we can spend more time in the classroom on academics. We desperately need parents to help us by teaching their kids to take responsibility for their actions rather than simply blaming others. After all, 'I wasn't the only one,' is not an excuse that we want future leaders to use. Before you criticize, volunteer. We have MANY excellent students who excel in the classroom and who demonstrate high moral integrity.
