    I love Larchmont Charter! It is such a different environment compared to my old private middle school, but in a good way. Different is good for me. I got to meet new people from different backgrounds, which was an awesome experience because I learn from them so much. Also, the teachers here are great!

    Larchmont charter is a school which has undergone a few changes over the past few years. The teachers and staff have found ways to help the students learn in more ways that fit the needs of each of their students. The teachers always make sure that the students understand the topics of each subject and make they're putting in 100 percent of all their effort into the assignments. As well as this, the high school makes sure that the 11th and 12th graders get ready for colleges/universities with a multitude of resources and requirements which is provided and paid for by the school. Overall the school is very diverse and keeps an open-mindedness with their students.
    I love the student diversity in the school! The hot lunch meals improved a lot this year, and we even have personalized computers now! I just have a wish that our school campus gets bigger and more impressive.
