This school was a wonderful experience for my kids, and set them up well to be avid learners.

My child experience discrimination. Support or change has not be put in to place. All personal been informed. Learning should be challenge, creative and enjoyable.

I am an alum of lynbrook high school. When I was graduating hs initially, all I remember was wanting to leave. I felt a lot of pressure to do well in every aspect (academics, standardized tests, athletics, extracurriculars, etc.) and act as a perfect model student. I think one aspect of this school that is quite harmful is the way that mental health is not taken seriously. Everyone is competitive with each other by nature and self-deprecating jokes are the norm. Teachers are also very strict in terms of accommodations, even if the workload is unreasonable. I think it’s also hard to fit in as a student here if academics and college are not your priorities. Although my hs experience was very challenging, I can say that lynbrook gave me a strong foundation and work ethic for my adult life. I never thought that my college courses were harder than hs, and even now in graduate school, I don’t struggle too much with time management or academic rigor. I think there was a definite trade off in my case. Working hard in hs gave me the intelligence, confidence, and work ethic to succeed with any situation that life may present to me in the future. It also helped me to handle any situations with know it alls or annoying tech/finance bros.
