This is my senior year at LPS and I am proud to be a student here. My experience at LPS has been amazing. Not only have I learned so many life lessons, but I have created great relationships with students and teachers. They offer so many opportunities here at LPS such as various clubs, SAT tutoring, important organizations like CSF, and so much more. LPS also has a dedicated staff that is always willing to help their students, and no matter what they always be there for you as a teacher and friend. And if you are reading those reviews that criticize our school then you should completely disregard them. Yes our school may have some problems but every school does. However the positives further outweigh the negatives. Coming to LPS was one of the best decisions I ever made.
If you're deciding what school to go to for high school, it should be Leadership Public Schools. Teachers here have their own unique personalities and they're always there if you have any troubles or questions. There's not a lot of fights here since we all get along. Plus, it's great that we're able to have sports and extracurricular after school. Overall, if I had to choose a school to go for high school, it would be Leadership Public School.
Here at Leadership Public Schools San Jose we are all about going to college and stay on top of our schooling. The learning enviorment of the classrooms feels positive and makes u able to learn effeciently.
This is my senior year at LPS San Jose, and I'm glad that I've chosen this school for my high school career. Throughout my life, I was lost in the corruptness of poor schools and its people. Then, I came across LPS San Jose where I have really applied myself to my studies and more importantly my future. One of the greatest qualities of our school is the influences we gain from the friendly personalities of our teachers. They have really applied their lives to make sure we get the best out of our education. Even though our school is located on a parking lot and is around a poor community, we are more than we appear. We are Leadership and the qualities of our school isn't measured by its appearance, but its people. And to each other we are family; not classmates.
Ok I have no idea what the person below is talking about. They must have attended another school because thats nothing what LPS is about. LPS is a college prep school and I have seen how it has help me. My teachers are great! They are like mentors to me and the students all get along at the school. Yes like other schools, we have had fights but I can't remember the last time we had one. The teachers are really good in keeping us safe! I really love my family (that's what LPS is to me) and I'm going to miss it when I graduate this year!
Horrible! This school is not challenging it s the easy way out. Do not trust the schools in the district you will regret it.
I am a p[arent & my child has almost 4.0 gpa, I am so proud & if it were not for LPS it never would have happened, now we can really believe college is in reach. Thank you LPS.
I'd rate my school 5 stars, were it not for the unjustified opinions of a select few of my classmates. Instead, I'm going to apologize for their actions. They've used this forum as a place to make really biased and hurtful attacks against our school and its staff, which isn't what this site is about. It's pretty sad that while most of the school is focused on improving itself, some of our upperclassmen would try to openly sabotage our hard work by putting us down on a public website. The teachers here give us a voice and a chance to be responsible. The irony of this is that all of the students who posted here to complain would never have felt confident enough to say something if they hadn't learned it through their years at Leadership. The people here might make mistakes, but we still have blessings in disguise.
I am proud to say that i am a student at LPS San Jose. This school is a very good school. The teachers here are really good and all the staff tries to help every student equally. I disagree with some of the students in my school in the aspect of favortism. I have not seen Favortism at my school at all, they treat everyone equally
Are you seniors really going to do this? Please, you guys had your hardships, but look at you now; because of every single staff member and every single lesson taught by them, you've gotten so far into the spirit of LEADING that was taught by a LEADERSHIP school! I find it sad to believe that this amazing school would have its first spoiled students test out their leadership skills on the school itself because they didn't receive privileges such as AP & Honors. Why are you wasting your time putting this school down when it has done so much? Time is money & intelligence, so while you're sitting here falling in love with your tongue, guess what everyone else is doing; having fun, enjoying the school, coming closer to careers, and BUILDING relationships with the needed skills to move forward in life that was exposed to us by our GREAT SCHOOL
