Livingston Senior High School Reviews
Rating 3.89 out of 5 371 reviews
Livingston High School is a great public school that caters pretty evenly to all the different types of students. This includes students interested in sports, academics, or certain niche interests while maintaining a mindful spirit and staying diverse. However, no school can be perfect, so neither is LHS. Some departments in the school like science or English have some flaws including not letting students test out of classes which they already know all of the content of (which happened to me with chemistry) and having unfair grading systems in comparison to other departments/teachers, which make it seem like you are weaker at a certain subject than others on your transcript. Still, it is just the way certain teachers grade that is the true reflection of those differences in grades on transcripts.
Livingston High School provides its students with a quality and truly valuable education as the opportunities at the school are endless and the teachers there are probably some of the best in the area; they are intelligent leaders who genuinely care about the educational success of each and every student. I can't complain about anything regarding the education at the high school, however, the social environment of Livingston is something that the school itself can't change, but many alumni will note Livingston for being very "cliquey" with notes of racism and bullying from the more wealthy or athletic students. It would be nice to know that future students of all backgrounds feel more comfortable at our school now.
Livingston High School has a strong academic program and is known for its rigorous coursework and high academic standards. The school offers a wide range of courses, including advanced placement (AP) classes, to challenge its students and prepare them for college and beyond. The faculty at Livingston High School is generally regarded as knowledgeable and dedicated to helping students succeed.
