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.

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.

My experience at NBHS has been incredible. I have learned a lot academically and about myself. I have made wonderful relationships with my peers, teachers and coaches. I am grateful to have been a part of the North Babylon community.

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.
