Lewis & Clark High School

Overall, the school is fine - you get a good education, the staff is more-or-less friendly and helpful, and you'll walk out being aptly prepared to attend your first year of college. However, honors classes here are no more challenging than regular classes, they merely cram in more information in the smallest allowable time, then take a standardized test on the information. AP and Honors courses are more or less given inflated reputations. Students involved in sports, as well, are given priority and are allowed to do poorly, whilst receiving more help than others. In general, it's a good school but puts too much emphasis on AP and Honors courses, that quite honestly are no harder than regular classes (in fact I think you LEARN a whole lot less - you're only taught to remember), and those who attend the over-hyped sports programs - football, soccer, tennis, baseball, basketball - are given priority and special privileges where they shouldn't be. Kind of a shame for a school with good teachers, too.

I have a 10th grade daughter who goes here and like the school very much. It is urban and the kids will be prepared to go on to college in large cities if they desire. The support from teachers and staff is outstanding.

My oldest son graduated from LC and it is an exceptional school. The teachers and coaches are caring and dedication to the students and their success.

My child graduated from LC in 2005 after attending during her junior and senior years. With her excellent education and AP scores earned while attending school at LC she was able to graduate from college in three years.

Lewis and Clark is the only high school i'd take my kids to in the country. The Athletics and Academics combination is what makes it such a great place

This school is the most friendly place that i have ever been and i think that any student is given a chance there and they will be treated as nicely as possible. i also think that they could use a little bit more money to help with all of the students.
