My child is finishing 8th grade this year and the school overall is fine. The classrooms and tech are a little dated but there are plenty of decent hard working people teaching our kids there. The only issue I have seen which is apparently everywhere now days is that a large percentage of the students are disrespectful and put forth no effort in their leaning experience. Overall a decent school but some of the students could stand a bit more discipline.

This place is HORRIBLE. Administration are complete bullies and like to make student's lives worse. There is bullying everywhere but no one bats an eye, people getting called slurs, getting made fun of, and getting laughed at. And worst of all, a bunch of the teachers are on a complete power surge. Most of the teachers do not respect student's, and I've seen multiple teachers scream right in student's faces. PLEASE don't send your child here....

most teachers at lisha kill like to tell on there students so they get detention or get suspended so they don't have to deal with them. Like my friend was just talking to me during class and he got a couple detentions for asking to use a pencil. Like that is really ridiculous.

I personally find this school a great experience for my child. He had always had social issues and, according to what he has told me so far, I believe that this school has helped him and I can see that he's improving on his social skills.

Lisha Kill Middle School has no respect for their students, nor do they answer questions asked, teachers are oblivious to their lack of classroom management. As a student, i am not accusing, simply stating the obvious. I am a straight-A student, and as administration grows more and more impudent, it makes me want to leave LKMS as much as a human needs oxygen.

This school is garbage the teachers and horrible ( except Ms.Parda) the rest are disrespectful and mean. This school should be shut down. I am currently in 9th grade and still hate this school.
