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.

I feel like North Babylon High School didn't help students trying to go to college in a way that they should've. lack of proper guidance and resources for college preparation. It's not that the school didn't have counselors or advisors who can provide guidance regarding college admissions but that they didn't do anything due to that fact that they were always unavailable, leaving students overwhelmed by the complex process of applying to college.

The teachers, depending on who they are really nice. They generally try to have a nice relationship with the kids there. The thing that I would like to see is stricter action taking place whenever there's bullying.

It is a large and diverse school but for people who've just transferred from special education, like myself and not being in district for 8 years, It doesn't help much that the guidance counselors do nothing to REALLY help you and when my transition to district was being set up, There were opportuni...
