  • lamar middle school is such a good school i meet a lot of friend there and now that now that im gone from there i am very sad. Anyways, lamer is a great school, it has teachers who can help you very well if you dont understand something.The only person that i did not like was the principal she so rude but other than that everything was great there.
    Parents if you are going to send your child there it is a good choice.
    With that said i say my good byes and hope that you are happy
