    Great school. Engaged teachers & admin staff. Only thing missing? More extracurricular activities that aren't sports. :)

    My children have known no other school throughout their education, and they are thriving at Lyndon…read more Is it always perfect? Nope, but that is not a realistic goal for anything in life. My children don't even know how lucky they are to get daily foreign language classes, an entire staff that knows them by name, on-campus tutoring (if needed), and all the individualized attention they could ever want! As a parent, I'm obviously thrilled with the advanced curriculum, something my children see as the norm because it's all they've known. But just as important is what they DON'T experience: phone distractions, fashion-comparison pressures, classroom behavior disruptions that hinder learning, overcrowded spaces, or the risk of getting lost in the crowd. It makes me so happy that this is the schooling that they get to experience. *I read a review mentioning that funds weren't used for front door safety, but we've actually had a new front door code access system all year!

    If transparency, honesty, accountability and safety are expectations you have in a school for your…read morechildren, Lyndon is probably not what you are looking for in a school. Our family attended for four years (2021-2025) and observed increasing concerns, especially with the administration run by the Murdock family. Key issues of growing concerns included: -High teacher turnover, dismissed by the administration as normal but found to be worse than other schools. -Misuse or unexplained use of fundraiser money, particularly for promised security upgrades that were never completed (e.g., a buzz-in front door system). -Negligence with bullying, where a known student repeatedly bullied others and was only expelled after a serious incident, despite parent complaints. -Lack of leadership accountability, as all administrative roles and the board are filled by family members, leaving no room for independent oversight or appeals. I can't speak to non-returning students and families for other grades, but can say that with many of the parents in our child's grade that nearly HALF (of the now 3rd grade), including their older and younger siblings in other grades, left after the 2024-2025 school year due to these ongoing concerns.

    I encourage anyone considering Living Science Academy to look beyond the negative reviews and do…read moretheir own research. While every family's experience is different, reviews often represent only a small portion of the community. Take time to visit, speak with current families, ask questions, and see firsthand whether the school's approach is a good fit for your child. We've found that there is much more to the school than what is reflected in a handful of critical comments, and it's worth forming your own opinion based on direct experience. Living Science Academy has been an incredible blessing for our family. Both of our children graduated from there, our oldest in 2024 and youngest in 2025. What sets this school apart is its unique combination of academic excellence, hands-on STEM learning, leadership development, and genuine care for each student. The teachers are passionate, knowledgeable, and deeply invested in helping students succeed both academically and personally. It's an environment where students are encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and develop a true love of learning. The science-centered curriculum, with its engaging labs and projects makes learning exciting and meaningful. Beyond academics, Living Science Academy excels at building character and confidence. Students were given the opportunities to develop leadership skills, public speaking abilities, and strong friendships. The school's emphasis on mentorship and personal growth helps students become well-rounded young adults who are prepared for future challenges. One of the things I appreciate most is the partnership between the school and families. The community is welcoming, encouraging, and focused on helping each student reach their full potential. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about every child and work hard to create an environment where students can thrive. If you're looking for a school that combines strong academics, exceptional STEM education, meaningful leadership opportunities, and a caring community, I highly recommend Living Science Academy. It has made a lasting positive impact on our family, and we are grateful to have been a part of such a special school.

    Our family has been blessed to be part of LS. Love the community feeling and the school's goal to…read morethe kids' hearts towards Jesus.

I know the place can become dirty from games on Friday night but sometimes my son goes to train on a Monday or Tuesday and it looks as if it was right after the game. Now I can't help it that much but maybe some staff to clean up would help. Overall good place to train and good school but just a bit dirty.

    I went to this school, and I can safely say this place was awful. The teachers have no respect for…read morethe students, not even the quiet kids who patently do their work. The school lies to the kids and says stuff like "you must have at minimum 7 AP classes to graduate"​ when that is frankly bullshit, and multiple of the teachers ignore students with IEP's. A math teacher at this school who I will call "Mrs. Brunch"​ took me into the hallway every single day, sophomore year, to demand I apologize to her for no reason and scream I'm wasting class time. She sent my mother 4 emails when I had the hiccups in her class stating "i was purposly disruptive" and demanded I get my meds changed becuse "they were causing my hiccups." She also reported me to the office more times when I could count. The only reason I finished that class with an A is becuse she couldn't fail me without proof, and I did all my work. The chorus teacher verbally abuses kids to tears, the band directors make the band kids stand in the sun till they PASS OUT, and racism runs rampant among teachers and students. I can't tell you if the other schools in the area are better, but the one good thing I can say about this place is that there isn't much open and outward bullying, and most students respect one another. If you ask any student at this school, they will either say they hate this place or they will lie out of fear. ​
