Currently in my senior year at James I O’Neill High school, I feel that the school made me into who I am today. Not only did I make lasting relationships, but I was free to experience new things; what high school is all about. From anime club to fashion club to Red Cross Club, you are able to meet new people and find out what you like. This high school pools in students from Highland Falls, Fort Montgomery, West Point, and Garrison. Although O’Neill is on the smaller side, it gives students the opportunity to truly connect and form relationships with not only their peers but also the faculty. This is one of the reasons we have O’Neill graduates who went off to Harvard, Brown, Princeton, and so many more great opportunities. Like many schools, there are excellent teachers and teachers that are not your favorite at O’Neill, but they all have one thing in common: they want the best for their students. Go raiders!
This is an amazing school! This High-school is extremely diverse and offers many opportunities. Everyone is so friendly, it’s a great learning environment.
As a student at James I. O'Neill High School, I feel like we have a solid academic program, especially in the STEM areas of schooling. Our music program is lacking in band, but for choir, we continue to be very strong. We have quite a diverse student body with about 60% of our students Caucasian, 25% African American, and 15% Hispanic. These diverse cultures definitely define aspects of the school and enhance our learning experience. With regards to athletics, our cross country, tennis, and volleyball teams are very good. Our girls soccer team was undefeated for the whole season.However our football, mens soccer, basketball, and lacrosse teams are on a tier right below. The rest of our sports are not super competitive, but provide great athletic opportunities to students. In terms of clubs, we have many options, with the school giving students the ability to create new clubs with a teacher sponsor. After being here for 2 years, I really like going here and graduating.
