Son went here, won an award for mathematical excellence when he graduated 1% percent of the kids get this award. Went on to union county community college. Guess what? As soon as the advisor saw what HS he came from he had to take math tests on the spot. Guess what again? He failed and had to take bunch of remedial HS math classes in college. So my son was in the top 1% of his graduating class, but still had to take remedial classes? What are the other 99% like in math? Not even able to go to college so far behind? Good job Rahway HS, don't give homework, scale all grades, pass no matter what and apparently don't teach much either. Graduation rate for union county college is 20%. Rahway High school better start pushing trades or something, the kids coming out of there are not college material at all.

While I appreciate the efforts being made to improve school culture, there is a noticeable lack of collaboration between leadership, staff, and families. Strong schools are built on partnership, communication, and mutual respect—not a top-down approach where voices feel unheard.When leadership leans more toward control than collaboration, it impacts the overall climate for both students and staff. I hope to see more inclusive decision-making and a greater focus on building trust with the entire school community.
