Hi, I am a current sophomore at Lennard High School, and I will have to say this school is not that bad, but it has its worst and good days. Let's start with students. I have read many of the reviews saying that "teachers don't let students use the restroom" and complaining about the tardies and detention. I have never personally been in detention before, but I know that most of the students are caught skipping, the school has recently updated to if you have 5 tardies you will get Iss, Oss, or Atoss and it adds on throughout the quarters. This school has lots of fights and there for dumb reasons. Students are fighting over simple things like chips and the max thing is over a boy or girl, and that has nothing to do with the school it's just the students behavior. Now on to lunch. All I have to say is the lunches are bad and not cooked fully, the only thing good is the snacks you can buy, and the cookies are sometimes raw. Now last but not least teachers and staff, all I have to say is some care about their job and actually teaches and makes students do their work, but some doesn't care and just lets students be on their phones and just talk.

Lennard is a great school for kids and parents who care about education. My oldest daughter graduated from Lennard a few years ago and is getting ready to graduate college this fall with a degree in education. My youngest daughter is currently at Lennard in their collegiate program and is currently taking mostly honors, AP, and college courses. The collegiate program is great... there's no cost for the parents and if the student follows through, they'll graduate with an associate degree along with their high school diploma. The arts and agriculture departments are really good for students interested in these programs. This is not a high income area so don't expect a lot of frivolous extras, but the teachers and staff do care and communicate with parents regularly.

I wish it was an option to give half stars because this school is the absolute worst! Teachers do not respond to emails or phone calls. Administration is only concerned with keeping their graduation rate acceptable. The staff and administration are very unprofessional. I would not recommend sending your kids here unless you want them to have ptsd.

The staff is the most unprofessional staff Ive seen in a school system. They treat most children as a number and hardly have faith in their own education plan. The children are being far have the worst attitudes towards their education and most coaches and teachers carry that same attitude. I will never have my 12 year old experience this school and staff.

I can not say enough good things about this neighborhood school; the staff, the faculty and the students.
My youngest son of four will graduate with honors on the 26th-his entire experience from the classroom to athletics to the engineering and robotics competitions, the teachers involved in my sons years at Lennard have been phenomenal. These people truly care about my child, his academics and athletics. Everybody wants to be a LONGHORN.
