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.

New Dorp has the best education facilities and best teachers. When I first applied there as a student I thought that I will not be accepted or I will have a difficult time adjusting to their system, but what I face there my first day was so differ. Teachers were welcoming, students everywhere, different races, and there were people helping me get used to the school and their sports are so good.

New Dorp Highschool gives you a lot of opportunities for internships and career exploration.

The experience is what you make it to be.

With my current knowledge of this school, the majority of the work that has been provided is busy work. The work provided does not seem to be tailored for students who may be struggling or requ...

The administration at this school is a complete disgrace. No one is ever available or are in constant meetings. There is very little teacher involvement. My child flourished once leaving this school!
