Student Life
I like the intensity that prepares us for whatever is ahead--the enrichment
Jonathan
I would recommend the LAA because of the teachers, discipline, perserverance,
commitment, dedication --- and the Academy help you get ahead of the game -- so to speak
Jonathan
The teachers allow creative freedom and more structured educational environment in classes which
make them more interesting. They aren't just giving you the answer, but they're prodding you along to
figure it out by yourself
Leah
I want other people to be able to enjoy high school as much as I have
Leah
The teachers are, for the most part, creative, enjoyable, and educational. They know how to teach without
using thousands of worksheets to do so
Harrison
My favorite class is band because I like to play music and I like the atmosphere
Harrison
The LAA is so much better than most aspects of high school
Harrison
I like that the "book is not the course attitude" and there is always interesting work
opportunities
David
I like that classes aren't usually taught in boring, traditional ways, and the choice of magnet electives
rather than the traditional electives
Leila
I recommend the LAA to anyone that is interested in learning, being creative, likes other people, and
is willing to accept other people's differences and learn from them
Leila
... like discussion in classes, alternative views on issues, relaxed atmosphere, wide variety of electives
Melissa
There really isn't a "popular group," everyone just roams from group to group
Melissa
LAA teachers are excellent -- caring, enthusiastic, willing -- everything good effective teachers should be
Emily
... it is easy to make friends
Emily
Magnet is a different experience than you could get at any other school. It is exceptional
Emily
I like the smaller size classes -- one-on-one contact from teachers -- teachers are
involved
Julia
I would definitely recommend this program to other students because the classes are small but fun, the
teachers are very able and willing to do everything in their capacity to help us learn. This a
WONDERFUL way of getting a great education
Julia
I like the difference from ordinary teaching methods, the new ways of working together, and the hands on
projects
