  • I think Lamesa ISD is a very good school, because the teachers care about their students and they want them to do the best they can.

  • I realize that lamesa isd is not the best academically school around, but now that i go to another high school i realize how much better the teachers are than any possible school i might have gone to. Im still thinking in going back there to become a band director.

  • I went to this school and it changed my life completely. Every teacher i was friends with was very good to me and i loved going to the school and learning something new everyday. I loved being in the band and playing the flute and being a drum major during my senior year. Now i have memories from the school and now i am a single mom with a three year old son. I wish i can go back to the school and walk down the hallways even the football field. These memories will be with me forever.
