Everyone says that high school is the best four years of your life. Now that I am months away from graduation, I can honestly say people were right! Dobbs Ferry High School gave me confidence in myself to reach higher goals. The high school consists of about 100 students per grade and the feeling of being with family resonated with me every day. Living in a small community has many benefits to teaching us the value of friendship and loyalty. I wouldn't change a thing!

Is been the best time of my life, my school is small but I made so many friends, my teachers are very professional and helpful, we have plenty of resources and activities. I'm part of the varsity basketball and soccer team, I wasn't able to participate in many other clubs because I play soccer Academy and I didn't have enough time. Dealing with Covid is been hard, but I think learning online is preparing me for college
The Dobbs Ferry High School culture is competitive. Academics and sports are well funded. There's not a lot of diversity, however the town itself is really small. There is a sense of community within the school which makes sports games and school activities even more fun.
