Lebanon High School

I agree with the parents who said that Lebanon High School was getting a raw deal by the reviews of some parents. My son graduated after attending this school four years, and I found the teachers to be intelligent , compassionate, and caring individuals.who taught because they loved teaching The campus itself was very old, Now there is a new Lebanon High School.

Avoid buying or renting in this area like the plague if you honestly care about your child's education. We moved from Ca. and the only research I was able to do was online. Seemed like a decent school, not the best but okay--I was wrong! SOME of the teachers are good, most are mediocre at best. It's like they take the dead weight teachers from all of Wilson county and send them to Lebanon. I'm honestly regretting buying in the area and am seriously considering home schooling as a result of Lebanon High (no complaints with the elementary school my younger kids go to though). Please do yourself a favor and buy or rent in the Wilson Central or Mount Juliet area if you're moving to Wilson County.

Lebanon High School is an excellent school. The teachers are really involved in my students education. They also take time to help my child whenever they need it. I love this school and appreciate all Lebanon has done for my family.

The school is okay. We need a new one! someone ran into a wall and yellow ooze came out! i have seen 4 or five cockroaches this year. The teachers pretty much let the kids run all over them. Occasionally the teachers discipline students, and then other kids call them 'mean' when they are just doing their job. The dress code is loosening up after spring break. (:

Lebanon High School often gets 'the raw end of the deal.' This is certainly the case in regards to many of the other posters. By and large the school is staffed with excellent teachers who care about their students. If only more of our children could say their parents cared as much; they would enjoy much greater success both in school and in life. While I do agree that the school's facilities are abysmal, that is hardly the fault of the staff. Perhaps it is time that the parents of LHS's children and those of Wilson county put their money where their mouths are and fund a new school. I know I will.

I really like this school I think the teachers are great but the principal & teachers are worried about the dress code more then the students. I remember it was close to the end of the school year and the teachers was cracking down on the students. I bet half of the students was mad because they wasnt doing that at the being of the school year why start now. I feel that the teachers are doing a great Job at doing what ever they have to do to get the students to pass.

i think this school is great but they really need to worry more about the safety and education for the student more than cell phones and dress code Example: last week they made a sweep though the school looking for people out of dress code now what do those student learn all day in ISS nothing so the school is more worried about the stupid dress code than the education of the students! And reading some of the parents answers i know for a fact that at least WJB took great care of CDC becasue i helped in there i disagree parents try hard at least i know mine do to help my education the School is too small and my fourth block teacher has to borrow someone elses room because a differnt teacher uses her class.

Wow from what I can see on this website, you parents are not involved in your children's lives at all. This school is not a bad school. I recently graduated from LHS and am going to The University of Tennessee, Knoxville and not paying a penny out of my pocket for it. I The AP classes at LHS are outstanding. They are far more superior to any other within the county. You parents obviously have not seen the some of the amazing classes at LHS (the AP ones). Apparently, the parents who believe this school is a bad institution must have children who are in the lower level classes and do not do their work. My classes alone were harder than any other classes in the county and continue to expand to my college career. You parents are simply being ignorant to anything positive about the school.

I have a handicapped child and the special ed classroom at this school was a joke for my child. There is not equipment and limited PT and OT. She regressed so much I had to pull her out and homeschool her. I also found office staff rude and teachers uncaring. They got an attitude if I tried to get more services. I would never put my child back in this environment.

Being a former LHS student and graduate, I am completely disappointed to see how the school has gone down over the years. My son was only a student there for a short time and I will admit that he was not the perfect student...but for him to be able to just walk out of the school with no one knowing where he was or be signed out by an older girl (claiming to be his aunt) is absolutely ridiculous. The school needs to tighten up on security, education and control over the students before it gets totally out of hand. From what I can tell they are too focused on the dress code and cell phone usage to truly grasp what is really important which is helping our students and building them up to succeed. These kids will be our future leaders and that scares me to death.
