Small school district with oversized hearts of loving teaching staff! There is only one elementary, one middle, and one high school and they each have a small town feeling in a busy town minutes from Hoboken and NYC. It’s no easy task, but Weehawken provides top notch instruction, activities and clubs to this blossoming community.
The diversity in the school is wide with the varying ethnicity, skin color, genders, and sexual preference. The small vicinity of the school and town allows everyone to know each other to a respectable degree.
Though the students are a majority ratio of delinquents. I would say 3/4 of the school (9th to 12th) do some type of illegal drug and carry them into the district, smoking in the lockers, bathroom, and even sometimes in the halls or right outside the school doors and windows. While some of the students are nice and helpful, most of them lie, ditch classes, and work harder at not doing work than actually trying. Attachment to technology, mostly phones, negatively affects student involvement in classes and keeps each day feeling as stagnant as the last.
In addition to this, the school acts because of a situation rather than prepares before a problem happens. Whether this be bomb threat, shooting threat, illness check, and constant blocking of facilities. But overall it is decent.
