Lansing High 9-12

This school is terrible. Thankfully I was moved to LV district before I could get destroyed as a person. As many of the other parents said - they conflict with your role as a parent. The problem in this is - the state cannot raise your kid. Drugs are a huge issue among the student body - in my opinion - a bigger one than LV (and I'm not saying that LV doesn't have distinct problems). It is not entirely the school's fault - as it is up to a parent to keep up with their kids. However, this is a small town school that should have plently of programs and have apparent active parents who are being turn away. I hope it improves - it shouldn't compete with other schools, but rather focus on its' student body.

Lansing High School is an average high school. Lansing and Leavenworth are really loined at the hip as a community. Many parents and students expend a lot of energy comparing the two school districts. When compared, the most obvious thing is that lansing schools are compliant with annual progress benchmarks under the Federal No Child Left Bhng Act while Leavenworth is not. Lansing makes a big deal that their individual schools are considered 'Buildings of Excellence' under Kansas State Department of Education Standards when applied to the Federal No Child Left Behind criteria. Well, about 88% of Kansas Schools are also 'Schools of Excellence.' When you compare Lansing High School testing data with other state highs schools, you discover it is just above the tate average. Likewise, college admissions test scores average just above the state average.

My son graduated from Lansing High in 2007. My daughter will graduate in 2010. Both of them did not have any problems with any of the staff or teachers. The teachers push you to achieve your best. Of course there are teachers that they liked better than others, but that is life. My daughter thinks the music program is fantastic. My son loved the drafting and woodworking classes. So much so that he is choosing drafting as his major in college. Every school is going to have its good points and bad points, but all in all Lansing High is a very good school.

I have two sutdents at Lansing HS and I have worked there. Accademically the majority of the time your child will get a good to great education. The teachers pride themselves in preparing the students for college. As in any school some teachers are better than others. We have found that there are a few teachers at Lansing that are hard to work with when needing extra help. You get the impression you are bothering them if you go in for extra help, and this with honor students.
