Rating 4.15 out of 5 82 reviews
This high school is a solid choice for students looking for a decent education without any bells and whistles. The teachers are knowledgeable and committed to helping their students succeed. The curriculum is rigorous enough to prepare students for college, but not so overwhelming that they can't enjoy their high school years. The extracurricular activities are plentiful, but not always well-funded. The facilities are well-maintained, but not luxurious. Overall, this school provides a solid education and a supportive environment for students who are willing to put in the effort to succeed.
Amity is academically a good school. Our STEM classes are pretty good, so are our humanities. A good amount of AP courses are offered. The musicals and plays are described as Broadway level, and for most of them, that’s true. There are like 30 clubs you can join, and a lot of sports, too (though we’re not always very good at them). Amity is a regional school, so three towns attend, plus a couple “open choice” kids who are from the surrounding towns. We are NOT a diverse school, though. Not even close. Not in race, religion, sexuality, ethnicity, etc. None of it. The administration isn’t all that great either. I’ve had some really great teachers, though. My sophomore English teacher and freshman math teacher are both absolutely amazing.
There are many aspects of Amity High School that could be improved, such as the administration. However, the teachers are very helpful, and often go out of their way for their students. Although, this is not the case with all teachers. The academics at Amity are very intense and do a good job at preparing students for what is ahead of them. Amity focuses on punishing students for the wrong offenses. They mainly focus is on vaping and tardiness, when they should be focused on the more serious issues the school faces. Such as: homophobia, racism, and discrimination.
