1/9/2024
Dryden High School is a great school for an upstate NY school. They are pioneers in environmentalism, as they have all reusable utensils and trays, apple orchards that are incorporated in lunches, and EV charging station and cross country schools behind the school. It could use more accesses to AP course and more counselling when it comes to colleges and after school plans. Overall, I think it is a very good school.
1/26/2023
Middle schoolers are scary and the administration is unreliable and they kinda suck. The guidance counselors care more about sports than the actual students. The teachers are very nice and provide good educations. There are a lot of after school opportunities. The school lacks diversity but there are lots of groups of people you can hang out with.
1/21/2023
Teachers are pretty great. Counseling center is totally usless when preparing you for college. Sports have not the best coaches and tend to play a lot of favortism and lack knowledge of the sport.

Dryden school cares more about their appearance. Then they do about the students. They do nothing about bullying. They dont follow their own code of conduct. High authority staff lies.
5/3/2018
Parenting children who go to Dryden is a constant battle to get any level of consistency. Administrative turnover at every school in the system is amazing. Every year there is a completely new administration at every school, because no administrator wants to stay. There are no consistent rules, or e...

We had two children in the Dryden School District from K - 12. This small rural school close to Ithaca offers much to students who are interested in earning a quality education. The classes are small, the teachers are caring, and the students all know each other and have close bonds. Students treat...

I have been a student at Dryden central schools for 11 years. Elementary school were the best days of my life, very organized schooling system. Middle/high school.. On the other hand not so pleasant. It is the most asinine school I have ever been in. The way they handle situations is awful. In Dryde...
