Overall Rye High School was ok. The teachers favorited a lot and would provide more support to those they liked, along with the sports coaches. Coming from homeschool for 8 years they made it difficult to enroll and made us take many standardized tests the first few days of school making us miss the first few days of class. Our counselor made it difficult for me to attend early college and tried to deter me from doing it. There were a few teachers that were very kind and helped me learn a lot, most of the actual education wasn't bad and I learned most of what I was supposed to know.

The best part about this school is the school spirit. We are pretty much a big family and we take lots of pride in things like sports. The student section at home games is absolutely wild. My least favorite thing is my counselor, but that's probably a common thing.

Rye is a good school, all things considered. However, there are a lot of faults with it, but mostly with the student body. Rye is a very rural school in a very christian, very republican community. I don't mean to imply that religion or political standing automatically makes a bad person, but as a queer person in a non-supportive environment, the political views of this community don't exactly help. The teachers are all great and I love going to classes and interacting with people, but I have to say, hearing a slur being thrown at you at least once a day is never pleasant. Other than that, I wish there were more academic opportunities, but I don't have any more complaints. Rye is a great school and I can't imagine attending anywhere else.
