    Marlboro Central High School Reviews

    101 reviews

    The assistant principal does all the work and should be the principal. The current principal, Lawler, has no business being a principal. It's hit-or-miss with the teachers. You could get the worst or the best. The students themselves are very stuck-up and talk about each other behind their backs. It's like a crappy teen drama here- seriously. The school spends millions of dollars on their precious football field every year. Meanwhile, academic and after school programs are getting cut every year. In the beginning of April, the school already ran out of money and is now raising taxes (again) even though there are more people moving here and more homes being built.

    When I entered Marlboro High School I realized that I didn’t fit in with my classmates because they kneweachother all since kindergarten but looking back my senior year a lot has changed. There are alot more new students each year which allowed for more diversity and chances to make new friends, that made school and clubs feel more welcoming and free to just join even though you are not the same race as all the other students. The academics at Marlboro High School give you lots of readiness for college by giving you options to enroll in AP and college courses. By taking the college courses you earn college credits at a cheaper price than taking the course at a New York State college or university. Student culture is not our strong point because it is very hard for my classmates to work together and built something. Overall I think as this small town school grows bigger it will only increase all variables that make a school excellent.
    Marlboro Central High School offers one of the greatest sports programs in the entire hudson valley. Where they lack in diversity they make up for in sporting contests. The entire school is practically surrounded by their success as fierce competitors in a Class B, Section 9 school.
