By sending your child here, to Lake Castle, you are setting them up for self-esteem issues…read more Although the selling point is academics, you most probably have a child that is very smart to begin with. The teachers here will break them down, and not in a good way. My child as a first time preschool student was experiencing bullying from teachers starting on her first day, from no introduction, constant yelling and belittling. They do not get recesses, only sometimes a PE class. Neither the small kids nor the bigger kids can talk in class, at all. There is no social time excluding a small lunch. The teachers will smile in your face and act as if they're family, but once you leave their kids with them it's more of cult like culture behind closed doors. You are not allowed to enter the classrooms after the meet and greet. For small kids that cannot communicate well, it's even more difficult for them to tell you how their day was. They can't express just how terrible it is for their mental health and character to not be able to have a outlet all day. Even if you see the older kids in the morning, you can tell how meek and scared they seem. The teachers get a joy out of talking down to the kids starting from the first day. I'm so glad I pulled my child out before she could experience psychological issues at such a young age. My child was able to go on to a local preschool, and is thriving. The same assignments that were given there are given at this school. The programs they use, you can very well use at home, and your child will still thrive. The teachers are much nicer, my child is much happier. Think twice before sending your child here.

I attended Hahnville High from 1978 to 1981. It was horrible. On the first day of school in the…read moretenth grade, I could have walked away from the school and never been missed. The incompetent fools that ran the school would not let me register for classes until the first day of school. I had relocated to Louisiana, through no will of my own, from another state. Unless you are from the area, which I was not, you are an outcast. The football coach at the time thought only his jock football players could use the weight room. My parents paid the taxes for that messed up school just like the jock parents! Everyone should have had access to that weight room. A lot of bullying went on in the restrooms as well. Since I can never have my high school years back, I refuse to believe in God for having left me to rot in Louisiana during high school. I was so glad that I went to the University of Florida and got out of Louisiana when I finished.

It's extremely disappointing to see how situations involving racism are being handled at this…read moreschool. When members of the community call the administration to address serious concerns about the behavior of some students, it feels like our voices are being ignored. Issues like this should never be brushed aside or dismissed. Schools are supposed to be places where respect, accountability, and leadership are taught. The administration needs to do better by listening to the community, addressing these problems directly, and making it clear that racist behavior will not be tolerated. Silence or inaction only damages trust with the community you serve.

We know a lot of the other familys now that they been in the system for so long. So its a comfort thing. There is a new big gym lovingly called "The Deuce" because it is the second version of the bldg. Not cause it looks like a deuce. Like most private schools, it is busting at the seams with attendance. Every year the classes get bigger and the parking and pick up and drop off get crazier. This school's big fund raiser event is called Cajun Fest. Like other schools fairs, they will have a few local favorites like Chee Wees or Molly Ringwalds or Amanda Shaw along with the in-school in-parish band. Then there is all the cookie dough sales, the Worlds Finest Chocolate sale, endless Weekly Reader book fairs and something else I cant remember. Only thing they haven't done that I used to sell was fruit cakes. I actually liked them. But I digress. This school isn't really any better than others I have seen in the same grades, what I am paying for is better parents. Not teachers. Parents. Parent teacher nights here are waiting in line outside the classroom , parking lots are full. Parent teacher nights at a equivalent public school, those are typically empty. Better parents mean better students. Teachers are not supposed to raise your kids, only teach. That is why I break off $800 in my butt every month to ensure they get the best education without distraction, without fear of a crazy pajama wearing momma come in shooting because the teacher sent a note home that her child should take a bath and brush her teeth one day. I do enjoy this school and attending the church and all events like the annual fish fry during lent. Its a great opportunity to reconnect with those we only see in the gym and dropping off in the car pool line. All the teachers and the principal are very nice and somehow, know each of the students name. I seen it and I don't know how they do it. They do care here.

I love this school…read more Let me start out by saying my experience with this school has been purely on a volunteer/mentoring basis. From my experience at the school I really enjoy and admire the teacher/student involvement. They really want to see their students achieve and set up experiences, opportunities and resources to ensure their success. This includes, mock interviews, presentations, mentoring options and more. This school has done a great job creating an safe environment that's inclusive. Even from conversations with students on campus, specifically the ones deemed "different" they feel welcomed and accepted by their peers on this campus and it's one of the main reasons I love this school. The actual school is currently being built so they are in this professional hardcore trailers that are actually set up in such a way that created a pretty great educational environment.
