Van Wyck Junior High School

I recently graduated from Van Wyck Middle School. What I have to say about this school is not positive. While some of the teachers can actually teach, most of the teachers are very unprofessional, even making fun of their students and allowing bullying to continue. If you think your child will have a good experience at this school you are lying to yourself. Almost every single student I talk to that have gone to this school has almost nothing positive to say about it. The teachers have little regard for people with special needs and often are very rude to students with special needs. The principals, (not including the newest one) often handle situations wrongly. Do not send your kid to this school

It’s actually the worst!! I currently attend here. I barely learned anything all year, the teachers stink. Bullying occurs very often. I was harassed frequently by a group, and when I spoke to a consleur about it, nothing was done. There is frequent fights, and it is an overall bad environment. Do not recommend.

I currently attend the school one of the worst schools

this school is awful, during this pandemic my child learned nothing and passed all her classes. while there are some teachers that care but to many that stepped back and let the children do nothing. I'm disappointed, I only wished I had enough money to have put my children into a different school. Shame on VWJHS!

(Please note I went to this school in the past and I hope that things have changed however, I feel the need to share my experience to hopefully help those in need of information)Van Wyck is one of the worst schools I have attended. While not all teachers and staff were like this, the majority have had no problem pushing children aside who needed the extra help and support. They did absolutely nothing helpful or productive about the horrendous bullying problem and punished the bully's victim over the bullies (I know from personal experience). My time there was bad at best and traumatic at worst. If you have the choice to take your child to a different location then I beg you to do so. This horrendous location is not worth the pain. At best your experience may be lack-luster.
