We have had several children in the High/middle school facility and still have some there. There has been shuffling of the administration in recent years and several firings. They had went to web based grading system which only shows how disorganized they are, two weeks after end of the quarter still waiting for the final grade. It has become more city/modern , more of a drama center where teaching takes a back seat. Sports is a priority to them though they are good at them. The school is not suppose to allow students with a failing grades participate but they always do. At least they send ours and they are not good, they just want bodies on the team.

Teacher/parent communications is amazing compared to previous school. Average amount of homework. Students seem to Respect one another and coming in as a new student seem to be an easy transition

I came to this town the last couple years of my high school years and by the time I had kids a lot had changed. A lot of the staff were here when I started my kids out in the district. But when my oldest went into the first grade it all start changing. I had to make the change for my kids sake and they did not like it at first because the work was harder they said but, when they started the following year they could not believe the difference and love the new district and especially all the opportunities! My son was excited about the different electives in the high school that they do not have in Lone Jack. In Lone Jack they make you take yearbook as an elective course!

Lone Jack has a great small town feel, and cultures their students abilities down to a science. They are fabulous.

If you're looking for a school district with very little diversity, this is it! Community involvement does not exist here - it's more of a dictatorship! They're losing that "small town" feel. Teachers are inept and students pay the price! Can't wait for the day that we can move away from here! I feel bad that we decided to move here - my kids are seriously lacking!
