I used to go to this school in 2021 for 8th grade and it was honestly the worst experience. The…read morestaff were double standard. My female friend almost got expelled for touching my other friends thigh but they also casually let boy go around, slapping eachother on the butt in the hallways and they said nothing. The staff were mean to the students and I personally had a stuff come up, yell in my ear to hurry up and get to class while I was in my locker. They only gave us 4-5 minutes to get to class as well. I had to carry around stuff for 5 classes then go to my locker just so I wouldn't be late. The worst staff there were named Mrs and Miss cook. From what I'm aware, they were siblings and also extremely mean to the students. Miss cook would give kids detention for being late to LUNCH. I had my worst school experience here.

People have felt unsafe to come to the school because of the bullying and the staff "couldn't do anything about it" I've experienced first hand how bullying is handled and it is not how they say it is. Some of the student service staff will tell students information to other students and none of it is private. I've also seen the excuse of "they probably have something going on at home" excuse to defend the bullies, like why are we defending the bullies in the first place?!?! Anyway- Katz out

My daughter's dance competition was held here this past weekend and it was a great choice of venue…read more The school is quite large and the auditorium is a separate building with ample parking. The classrooms along the side were converted into dressing rooms for the dancers and the whole set up was well done. People were from all over, and everyone was very nice. There were no concessions (which was not the school's responsibility or fault) and no vending machines to be found, so we had to run out and/or bring snacks and drinks for everyone. But other than that it was a great place for this event.

The first floor has the gymnasium, swimming pool, auditorium, and attendance office. The second level houses the main office, library, and guidance office. It also houses the english office. The third level has many more classrooms. It also has the social studies/world language office, math and science office, and special needs office. One can find the class easily by the wing, floor number, and room number. For example C306 is located at the C wing, on the 3rd floor in room number 6. It is to note that the pool is very nasty and I've been told that they had to shut it down for a period of time due to the amount of bacteria.

My niece was assaulted by her bully, who has previously threatened to k##l her, at this school…read more Timothy Tokars' (the dean's) response to my sister in law was, "if you knew it was going to happen, then why did you bring her to school?" Today, they called in my sister in law. I suspect it was a tactic to intimidate her because they fear legal action. Their solution was to terminate the suspension for both teens, offering no consequences for the bully, who had made death threats against my niece. Following the assault and consequent mockery from other students, which staff seems to let slide, my niece does not want to return to Larkin because she, obviously, doesn't feel safe there. P.s. That bully told my niece to, "KYS," when staff pulled her off, and the staff surely heard it. I wrote this on Google (which does not appear) when that happened last month. It's been maybe around a month later, and that student continues to harras my niece, and the school has not done anything.

After admiring my transcript and noting that I spoke three languages, his first question of me was "How do you think your parents will be paying your tuition here?" I replied that since my father had a successful Law Practice and my mother sold Commercial and Industrial Real Estate as well as being a History Professor, I assumed they would be paying with money. I asked to be excused so that I could go out to the waiting room and verify that. The Headmaster flushed a very bright red and said "Don't tell your mother I asked you that question." Hearing this, I was uncomfortable. I excused myself and told my mother the question, and that I had been told not to tell her I was asked that question. Mother picked up her purse, said "We are leaving, girls," We left, and were soon registered in a lovely Catholic Boarding School in Iowa. My tuition was discussed with my mother, not with me. I was also able to continue my language studies.
