Central Valley Academy

• Central Valley Central School District at Ilion-Mohawk, NY
• 9-12

Senior: I've had a very good high school experience at Central Valley Academy. My most memorable experiences have to be the musical, chamber choir, trips to NYC and Washington DC. I also loved playing field hockey and having an internship through BOCES my senior year. The academics were pretty good but I could've worked a lot harder to maintain even higher results.

• Town of Webb Union Free School District, NY

Junior: My experience at Town of Webb School has been amazing. The teachers and staff are so nice, and are almost available to help students with their academic needs. The teacher-to-student ratio is great, because everyone can get individual attention. This is especially helpful to me, as I learned information better in a one-on-one environment. I would totally recommend this school to anyone. I feel that I have been prepared for college and my life after school. Plus the athletic program is great, with very competitive teams and athletes. I am very grateful that I attended Town of Webb School.

James A. Green High School

• Dolgeville Central School District, NY
• 9-12
• 28

Junior: The teachers at this school are very good at seeing potential in kids that don't necessarily see it in themselves. Speaking for myself I'm kind of a goof off at times and didn't really think to much of my grades I pull 80s and don't put a whole lot of effort in. There are a few teachers in this school who pulled me aside and spoke 1 on 1 with me about how I'm not tapping into my full potential and I'm finally starting to believe it myself . My grades have gone down this year compared to most yet these teachers give me opportunities to benefit from my mistakes. They truly do care.

Poland Junior/Senior High School

• Poland Central School District, NY
• 6-12
• 34

Alum: What a really enjoyed at Poland is the close, tight knit family we had even with our school being a small rural school. Whether it was in the classroom, playing sports, engaging in the fine arts or enjoying activities in clubs and organizations. When going to Poland you could always count on someone which could be fellow student, teachers or higher faculty. As students at Poland we always knew there was someone that would always having our back. Parents were also a big component of Poland by participating in many activities. Our community was known for hanging balls on the light poles in the village to show our pride for the sports teams. Parents were proud and the players were excited to see their names mentioned.
One thing I would like to see is more higher level courses. If you were someone that was an honor student by the time you reached your junior and senior years your options were small for those individuals. Overall my experience was one to remember.
