My oldest son goes to Lackland City and he loves it and I love the fact that they get the children involved as well as the parents in inviting them to math nights and reading activities for the children that are not school age yet. The teachers are wonderful and hard working. They call the house when my son is absent for illness which I think that is great. You can see that they go out of their way in building relationships with the students. My son knows just about every counselor and teacher there and that says alot. My son comes home excited about learning and wants to attend all the activities that they hold. For a 7 year old to be so excited about school says alot about the staff and school.

My daughter goes to this school now and I can't think of one negative thing to say. She has loved all of her teachers, and does well in her classes. I recommended this school to my friend and she loves it also. Her kids are doing great and she knows that they are safe.

The grade 11 Exit Level TAKS is a high school graduation requirement. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
