Mineola High School

School prepares students beyond academics with a very forward modern learning experience. Students have many opportunities at Mineola High School. You have to want to put the work into it. There are some english learners that might have different hurdles and not place grades on the forefront, that is unfortunate but happens. For the most part, most families are very education minded here. As a parent it's important to be involved in your child's schooling and know who your child is friends with. This school is 8-12 and the rating includes 8th grade scores. District/Board is aware of this and has been actively raising scores with better teaching/accountability thus better student results. The preparation and better teaching should start early on, 3rd-5th grade, with an emphasis on math facts and ela concepts. I would like to see library at lower/middle levels teaching research skills. Learning starts early on, principals need to continue to push for strong foundations and check that grade level teachers are consistent. The HS has great course options and many clubs. There's an additional building for alternative/ modern learning experiences and the main traditional academic building. There is security with front entrance guard. This is important to me as a parent. Music & Art are great. There's an academic emphasis, however, sports seem to be up and coming now with more student involvement and better coaching. In a nutshell, this school nurtures the whole student learning experience, there are many program options at the High School to help everyone succeed and or advance. Would recommend 100%!!

Both my kids are honor students at this school, and they are definitely preparing for their futures.

Excellent teachers and administration my daughter is currently a senior and she had a great experience with rigorous AP classes great theater program plenty of sports and activities for students to excel in. Mineola HS does not get the credit for all the work they do with their students. It’s definitely a hidden gem, as an educator myself I never had to worry about my daughters education. Great experience

Great school overall. Friendly and engaging teachers. Clean schools and great learning environment.

I have 3 kids in the district and 2 of them at the high school. They've had an exemplary experience. There are so many resources to help them excel. I am proud of my district and I would recommend it to anyone.
