This School’s Reviews

3.0 Senior

12/4/2023

Nantucket High School is nice but it is ruined due to how people treat the school and that results in how the teachers end up treating the students over a long period of time.

4.0 Senior

4/15/2022

Nantucket High School is a great little school full of caring teachers and a tight knit community always there to help you.

3.0 Alum

3/18/2021

I had a decent experience with this high school. The environment itself was tolerable, but the school it self was in poor shape. I felt like it made learning quite distracting. I was lucky enough to have great teachers who taught me and helped me despite those circumstances.
