  • I had one child graduate from South Lake and enlist in the Marine Corps. I have one attending now. It's a smaller school but it has a big heart and a lot of potential.

  • Terrible school. I try my best to feel pround when I drop my child off every morning here. But there's no hope. When I ask why she is so upset when she comes home after a day at South Lake, she explains to me that the teachers treat her like a 'dog'. When this is coming from a 14 year old, this is an issue. I could not tell you how many times I have called the school and informed them of this problem. Yet, nothing has been done. I advise you, if possible please search for a different school. It will save you from having a nervous break down every time you leave your child here.
