My experience at Peekskill High School is very balanced I have an amazing track team and I'm very good with my academics. However Peekskill High School lacks empowerment a lot of people are not really involved in certain aspects whether it's gameplays or social interactions
10/17/2023
I've had the best four years, but I believe there should be more clubs and preparations for college. I think they should have more AP classes that push students to work hard and have resources to help students achieve better scores. Which also helps students advance.
5/16/2023
The lack of attention they put on a child could be a little more fixable. Over all some of the teachers could be a little more understanding and nicer. Some kids don't learn the same way as others and they should be more mindful of that. But this year as a senior I have had wonderful teachers and treated me with respect.

I had to send my children to a private school because of the lack of preparedness for college.There is no busing after 5th grade. I should have done my homework and moved to another town with a better school district.
