9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved to the school district for the renowned Amity high school. It’s an okay school. Not terrible, however, not great either. When we had any issues, they were immediately brushed off by the counselor, school services and the superintendent. Some teachers are decent while others don’t know their area of expertise and make really weird mistakes in class. The new teachers just overload the students with class projects and homework and brag about being bored as a teacher in class. It’s actually a tendency for Amity teachers to give college level amount of work and just grade it afterwards, barely any teacher - student engagement. Feels like taking a fully online college class.The school has a serious drug and vaping problem no one seems to care about.Bullying does exist at Amity too. Less than at lower rating public schools, since many kids come from decent families.Yet, when we reported the long-term bullying and harassment issue by another student, the school just did the victim-blaming!Amity should focus on its internal issues instead of the school ratings.It feels more like a 5-6/10 school to me. Can’t wait for my kid to graduate.Parent Review10mo ago - Amity Middle School: Bethany

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am extremely disappointed in this school. I am a current student here, and the administration does absolutely NOTHING to punish misbehavior. Several students have reported harassment and bullying, and no punishments were given to the offenders. This school also does an extremely poor job of educating students about respecting our differences. During classes, students are always on their phones and do not pay attention to the lesson, while the majority of the teachers do not do anything. There are a handful of good teachers here, but none of them are part of the administration.Student Review4y ago - Bethany Community School
