I think that Plainview-Old Bethpage John F. Kennedy High School is a wonderful school. The academic program at this school is something i would definitely want to highlight. I think the teachers are also all for the most part great!

As I approach senior year, at Plainview Old, Bethpage high school I am able to give a good review. Our previous principal, Mr. Murray has retired. He was the best. This high school is very diverse and competitive with our neighbor schools such as Syosset and Jericho. The teachers seem to care at times. We arent known for being the best at sports, but we try.

The food was bad. Some of the teachers were bad, but they tried. The classes weren't too crowded, but there were some disappointing students.

This school is appalling. Of it's staff, there are a very select amount who are genuinely concerned with the education of their students. The atmosphere has changed from open and education-oriented to conservative and test-based. Education is no longer about learning at this school, it's about test...

This school is horrendous. There's a reason the students call it JFK, "jail for kids". The administration and teachers are a joke. I go to an ivy league school and will not give an ounce of credit for my achievements to any person associated with this poor excuse of a school. The teachers only care...
