Livermore High School is a great choice for your student's high school years. The PTSA and Booster club are 2 of many ways parents can participate in the high school while supporting their children. The administration is knowledgeable, friendly and caring. I have had children in the school since 2006 and can honestly say, I love this school.

This school has the best librarian ever. She helps kids with reports, research and computer work. She is patient but doesn't put up with kids who aren't working on class assignments. She is respected by teachers, parents and students. Let's keep her at LHS.

Livermore High is not only great for academics, they have great clubs, sports, and afterschool activities. They have an amazing drama program and clubs range from everything to drama and gay-straight alliance to link crew and interact club. It is truly an amazing school, and I am getting so much out of it.

Livermore High is a lot like small schools were when I was growing up. LHS continues to keep it's heritage and small time feel alive, which is hard in this day and age. It is also hard for it to compete with other local schools for funding, athletics, scholastics, etc. LHS needs and deserves extra funding. My children benefitted greatly from this school.

I am an advanced student, currently enrolled in A.P. Biology, Calculus, and English. I am thoroughly pleased with my experience thus far in Livermore High. I am active in leadership and sports, and feel that I have had an amazing time here.

Strong Students and good parent support keep the school acceptable for the average student. Many students are allowed to fall between the cracks by the teachers and staff.

The advanced classes are wonderful, teachers are full of motivation and make students feel important. Unfortunetelly, for most of the students, the lack of attention that is given is very detrimental. The administration is a joke, and many of the CORE required classes ae significantly sub standard
