Niskayuna High School Reviews
Rating 3.77 out of 5 248 reviews
I really enjoyed going to Niskayuna High School. I got to experience the different amount of activities, resources, and overall diversity. I would like to say that the preparedness for college is not the best. I wish there was more helpful tips on getting you ready for college rather than back to back exams and tests.
The best part about niskayuna highschool most likely is the immense amount of courses offered to you which allows you to be able to go down many different paths of interests. Also, test scores are immaculate in niskyschools, such as AP exams
Niskayuna has allowed me to prosper as a student and an athlete. Throughout my time as a student, my dedication to education has grown immensely through the many resources offered. They offer a variety of courses outside of the normal curriculum, so students have the ability to study what they are interested in. Most teachers are passionate about teaching, and incorporate different learning styles to suit students needs. The student body is overall friendly and accommodating. Our sports teams are supported throughout the community and our athletes are motivated in and out of season.
