My son is just about to finish Kindergarten, and Saltzman has been a wonderful experience for him. The principal is absolutely amazing. We love, love my son's Kindergarten teacher - the staff at SEM has shown so much support for my son, and he has learned so much this year.

I love Farmingdale public school systems. I went to Saltzman, Howitt, and the high school and I have to say that we are not just a community, we are a family. The schools brought us all together. From concerts to athletic games it was always a great time to be involved with the school somehow. “Once a Daler always a Daler”

HelloI am truly surprised on the low score for Howitt Middle School. My daughter started in Fall of 2023. We find almost all of the teachers to be amazing and engaging. They all put extra time into their work and time with their students. They have an amazing ICT program that goes above and beyond. We love the school Guidance counselor, who is open and friendly. For the first time my daughter understand ls math and is doing amazing due to the ICT class and she made honor roll. Which made her fell great.Is everything perfect no not everything is perfect but the faculty and administration is willing to listen and make changes all the time.They also engage with student during different activities including faculty vs students. Like a field day so cute! I am so impressed by the music department and all of the teachers, they are beyond exceptional. After school programs the school comes alive. There is a club for everyone and every interest. The library runs a knitting club with over 50 students male and female.The school musical is phenomenal beyond words. They have after school help for every major subject. There is no bullying and it’s because they were raised that way throughout school and it shows since they started school here it is considered unacceptable and it’s not put up with and it’s dealt with right away. Almost all the children have a group of friends they hang out with and even if they don’t, the kids are kind to them and appear inclusive. I would give Howitt a 10/10 and think it is better than any private expensive school. My daughter, with hard work and support of her teachers is doing so well academically, not even how she tests but what she knows. Her growth and knowledge is unbelievable.Every child is welcome and included. Howitt seems to hold the values I have raised my daughter with and value.I feel so luck to be part of this great community.
