Rating 4.06 out of 5 80 reviews
I feel Baldwin gives students various courses to help them get better at their interests and possibly find a future career. Baldwin has multiple classes that many schools do not have such as film, culinary, graphic design, and much more. I also enjoy the teachers who teach at Baldwin since throughout my 4 years going to Baldwin I haven't had one teacher I disliked, they are all kind, fun, understanding, and welcoming.
Overall my experience in the district has been pretty good. The district is a close-knit community with many friendly people. There are also several organizations and clubs to join. There is also a very decent class size, not too small, not too big. One thing I would change is possibly having more long-term teachers. I feel many teachers have been jumping around and it affects our educations when having subs most of the year instead of full-year teachers. Another thing I would change is the guidance counselor system. I haven't had a steady counselor in a while and it's hard to figure out who mine and who to meet up with, when there's constantly a change. It is very frustrating at times.
The school district offers a robust music enrichment program. My child has been involved with music for over 8 years and they have been challenged to excel. My child has been given the honor of several solo pieces during band performances, both with the band ensemble and the marching band. My child's experiences with this organization has helped them grow as a young adult, enabling them to better interact with students from other schools and grades.
The school has excellent academic programs as well. Academics should be the corner stone of any school district and Baldwin clearly takes this seriously. My child was identified 8 years ago to be in gifted/advanced learning classes and since then has excelled at learning. My child is currently in 3 Advanced Placement classes.
The teachers are all top notch. My child amazes me with the quality of projects and assignments they bring home from school. These are not "time killer" assignments. They are truly thought provoking .
