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.

General Douglas MacArthur has been nothing but amazing. It is great knowing the amount of people and resources each and every student has to help them with their future.

The social climate at this school is extremely toxic. Very racist, homophobic, and misogynistic. The administration does nothing to combat the rampant sexual harassment and bullying; they just keep touting their long tenure, not realizing it just makes them sound stuck in the past and unable to move forward with the rest of the world.

I feel my school helped with stuff academically and had good classes towards academics but didn't prepare much for the real world and learning how to survive in it.

Both my sons graduated from Levittown public schools and both are successful in their business, and well rounded in their lives with their own families.
