The city of Newburgh school district is heavily run on left leaning political beliefs and it shows. The Town of Newburgh, and parts of New Windosr which are separate municipalities from the City of Newburgh unfortunately do not have a school district and therefore the kids of those towns have to att
Posted by a community member on 9/7/2024Absolute disaster of a school. Picture a place that smells so bad of weed and vape that it makes you sick. Hallways so crowded that you cant move or breathe. While trying to get through these hallways, students are blasting disgusting music on portable speakers. You're pushed and shoved, body slamme

Posted by a parent on 2/28/2022It’s a graduation fulfillment center. The superintendent has been juicing the graduation rates since he arrives. Every policy he has introduced has lowered expectations for students, and it’s really begun to show in terms of student readiness for life after high school. Some students do transcend th
Posted by a teacher on 6/30/2021I graduated in 1993 so it's been awhile. NFA had amazing offerings and the district where I now live had anything close to the array of courses and the diversity of students. When we moved to the area, people didn't have a good impression of NFA but they were very wrong. I learned so much there, and

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWonderful experience here. My daughter has thrived in this school, the teachers from other grades even seem to know her, they go out of their way to challenge her and foster a love of learning, and have kept me updated regularly on both social and academic issues.Parent Review3y ago - Balmville School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDr. Buon is probably the best administrator in this district. Balmville School is a great school. The school was given special ed classes to save money and the issues come from not having staff to service the kids the district moved in there. Our child went K-5 there. If you know what education is and care about the learning part, this is the school for you. It is not the school for special ed, but this is a special ed problem across the district.Parent Review4y ago - Gardnertown Fundamental Magnet School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHORRIBLE SCHOOL. If you have a choice in placement do not send them here. They don’t communicate well. The principal and vice principal are incompetent and have done nothing to secure the safety of my child. HORRIBLE. I would give zero stars if I could.Parent Review6mo ago - Horizon On The Hudson Magnet School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSince 2020 the school has been a nightmare. They continue to overpromise and under deliver. There were disruptive children in my child's class and despite numerous meetings and conversations about all the issues, nothing was done. The other review is 10000% correct that the principal WILL NOT confront other parents about issues going on. Other teachers would enter the classrooms due to the disruption. Their mission statement and policies are bold face lies. There are no consequences taken to protect other children, nothing is upheld. My child was subjected to vulgar language daily, physical attacks, objects being thrown, sexual harassment, horrific profanity in the bathrooms, loss of lesson time due to disruption on several occasions... the list goes on & on. My child would come home every day and say guess what happened today, or would say we learned how to be mean to one another today. And instead of dealing with the issues and getting children the help they deserve, they will push you out instead of dealing with confrontation. Hands down the worst decision we have ever made!Parent Review1y ago - Sacred Heart School
