I really enjoyed my experience at Ardsley High School. I had only about 2 bad teachers during all 4 years of schooling. I have made great connections with many of the staff, making me feel comfortable asking questions in class. The sports also bring everyone together and the student section is so alive and always being the teams biggest fans.
