We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My high school experience has been rocky due to my mental health. In saying this Charles W Baker and the Baldwinsville Schools District Office has been nothing but helpful and supportive. They've helped me face my obstacles and finish my school career. Without the help of them I don't know if I would've ever finished school.

I moved at Baldwinsville as a 10th grader and immediately joined the theater group. That has blossomed into my career path. As a senior, I have now been the stage manager for Finding Nemo Jr and Forever Plaid at Baldwinsville Theatre Guild. My success has been a result of the connections I made at Charles W. Baker High School.

While I was a student athlete, contrary to some of the other reviews, I d...
