Honestly, I have no complaints about Lynbrook. Sure it was more difficult than many other high schools in the country but looking back, spending 4 years here really helped shape me and helped me figure out what subjects I enjoyed. I have so many favorite teachers and all of them are beyond qualified. Many of them are still teaching. Amongst them include Mrs. Quan (formerly Ms. Dong, I consider her one of my mentors), Mrs. Korsunsky (the best math teacher ever. I had her for two years in pre-calc and calc bc. She made Berkeley math so much easier), all my history teachers Mrs. Marks, Mr. Howden, and Mr. Williams, and Doc (yes he yelled in band but that's probably because you should've practiced. Outside of class, he's more like a nice grandpa). There's just so many teachers who made an impression on me and really cared about the students. I do have to say that during my 4 years, my English teachers freshmen/sophomore years weren't too spectacular so hopefully this has changed. You know what, even with the school work, I had more than enough time to do outside activities, volunteer, get involved with school clubs, hang out with my close friends often, and randomly drive places. I had a memorable 4 years in high school and I regret nothing about it. I'm not a genius either but I turned out just fine.  Read Less

I have very mixed feelings about this school having just transferred.     On the one hand it was much harder than where I go now, and most teachers were extremely unhelpful. I had a low 3, but in my present school I have a 4. 0 DONT TAKE FRENCH! (you'll thank me). School food was awful and overpriced. There is little diversity though that's unsurprising for the area. The facilities are hugely outdated. Overall, the school isn't geared towards a good student who wants to have time to do other things. This school is for those who can wake up at 5 and go to bed at 2. This school is meant for great students, and if you're not you will be left behind.    On the other hand, I have some great memories of this place. The soccer team was fun to play on with a surprisingly decent coach for a hs. It's not all that hard to find nice people though some tend to be fake. The school also prepares you mentally, and really gets you into the college mindset.     Shout out to Mr. Seike, hard but you will learn so much and he really makes difficult literature fun.     Just like with any school, there are ups and downs. If you're prepared to study the whole day and really immerse yourself, you'll have a good time. Otherwise good luck.  Read Less
