Love, love the school. Having been a part of this district for nearly 20 years now, I would rate it one of the best in the area. Love the small school atmosphere. For those having problems, try the larger city schools, we tried that and there is not comparison.

The bullying is out of control at this school! My child has been bullied constantly for two years. When bringing it to the attention of the guidance counselor, we were told there was no bullying, it was just some kids "picking on" my child. My child comes home every night in tears, begging to go to another school. I've heard from several other parents how bad this problem is at LB MS. They need to start an anti-bullying campaign and take it seriously!
