I enjoy fort , this is my first year here fully ! I enjoy the kids and teachers , everyone is supper nice , they did my iep quickly last year and helped me instantly

I would like to see more helpful resources be distributed throughout the school. This will help in the overall flow of the school and will be a lot more productive.
7/18/2024
The best part was how friendly the environment is, You can easily adapt around. There's also nice teachers who you talk to. There's lots of security officers roaming around the hallways to make sure the safety of the students. The worst part is having a lunch period. Not everyone wants a lunch period. So it would be nice to have more options Or go home early after that.

I feel like this school doesn’t really encourage academic success because some of the more ambitious students aren’t provided with the materials they need to succeed
9/8/2023
I had two children in this school and it was absolutely horrible. Teachers are impossible to get in contact with. The only time you actually do hear from a teacher is when something negative happens with your child, and even that takes them time. They do not allow children to use the restroom, drugs...

Graduated Fort Hamilton well prepared for college
11/25/2019
not happy at all! I expect more from this school. If you send your child to this school, do not expect any support. You are on your own.
