My daughter has been attending Lucile Smith for 3 years the academic structure is fantastic and the teachers and Principal along with the entire staff really care. It has been both a pleasure and relief.

This school is amazing! The staff is superb as well as the principal. According to our CST scores, we jumped over 50 API points to an astounding 815! We worked really hard to encourage and motivate our students to take responsibility in thier learning; it is paying off! I am so thrilled to be working for the Lawndale School District as well as for the top performing school in that district! We rock! LOL

This is my daughter's second year at Smith. Last year this school Rocked! It was a brand new school, with all new principal, teachers and staff, and new students. Everything was new! There were smiling faces everywhere...it was a good thing to see. The teachers here very outstanding I must say, they are serious about what they teach. I call this a 'public-private' school. That is how good they are. This year though has been a little... ummm... boring. Maybe they've settled in now, all of the excitement is gone, don't know.. New Principal is alright, last year's was Phemnomnial! Need more activities for students and more parent/principal contact. Overall though, good school.

If you truly mean a shy kid who wants to be outgoing, then I would help them interact with one child at a time. If you are talking about an introverted child, refer to http://www.carlkingdom.com/10-myths-about-introverts

Find something you are good at or enjoy doing a lot, just one thing. You'll gain confidence and meet other kids that enjoy that activity too. Mine was singing in choir. I wasn't good at anything else but that built my confidence for other things... More »
