During my time at Sandwich High School, the best thing was the clubs. The school offers a wide variety of clubs that cater to many different interests.

Little to no school spirit, most teachers don't seem to care much about the success of their students. Many opportunities are limited to the same people.

This was a low technology school for the first 2-3 years I was there. In my senior year, the school started to improve its technology. I would say that the teachers have split down the middle. About half of them really light a fire in the students and make it enjoyable to be there and learn new things, the other half seem like they are in it because they have to. They do not care if a student struggles in the class or not. Almost like they have a "not my problem" mentality.

this school is terrible. if you love your children do not send them here. incompetent teachers and staff. more concerned about getting students in trouble rather than helping them. teachers are incompetent when it comes to bullying, and they are not afraid to hire teachers on the spectrum.

I have a child who has graduated and one who is still there - both of whom attended Sandwich Public Schools since kindergarten. I believe their experiences there have helped them to become strong, curious learners with skills appropriate to succeed in college and beyond. There are lots of sports and...
