LSMS is an amazing school! They make the transition from elem. to middle school an easy, smooth and fun process for the kids. The phone #'s have changed from what's listed on this website though.

Overall I think that LaSalle Middle School and the Rockwood School district are very good and they provide a great education. I do feel though that their anti-bullying program is not as effective as the administrators seem to think it is. My son has been bullied every year since he transferred to Rockwood in 5th grade. In the beginning we reported it to the teachers and administrators. They tried to help but it was mostly lip service. The next year my son got a reputation for telling on people and it made everything worse for him. Since then he has mostly suffered quietly because he is afraid of retribution if he reports the bullying. He is frequently called names and his things are often vandalized by other kids. The teachers overlook it and the other kids just stand by. Sometimes it seems that the bullies are more protected than the victims. I'm at my wits end. My son does not want me to report it any more so for now I'm honoring his request. We are moving next year so I hope things will be better at the next school.

some teachers give too much homework and let stupid kids get away with stupid things. some cussing. switching classes= all the kids running like crazy through the halls. but still a good school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in math and communication arts, and in grades 5 and 8 in science. The results for math, communication arts, and science are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The MAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Missouri. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
