GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

As an athlete myself, I can't complain about the athletic opportunities given to me at the school. However, although the resources were great, there was a lack of organization within the athletic department. To be completely honest, I can't really complain. With all of the academic and athletic opportunities from Sachem, my gratefulness overflows all of the minor complaints.

I found that some teachers cared solely on grades without looking to help their students succeed more. But most of my teachers were caring and had strategies to help us learn and take in information the best way we could.

I hope that administration can start putting their students' needs ahead of their own egos and treat sports and music/arts equal, seeing as student participation in music/arts is more involved.
