Small school with a lot of resources and support from the community. A lot of opportunities for internships, college courses, and college prep. Great athletic facilities and opportunity. Classes are a bit limited due to the student population.

What I like about Old Saybrook High School is how pretty much all of the students and teachers are very welcoming. I also love that all the teachers push every student to do their best because they want to see everyone succeed. Something I'd like to see change is definitely how the staff goes about certain issues. Sometimes there is an incident at school and the staff members don't do anything about it even though multiple people have said something but that hasn't really affected anyone's learning from what I've seen.

It was an overall great experience. I met all my closest friends here, made a lot of fun memories, and had helpful teachers. The music department is the most notable and filled with the best and most caring teachers.
