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'll let this schools reputation speak for itself,  but this campus needs a face lift. Considering the tax revenue this area generates, I'm surprised that the school looks like it hasn't been updated since my boyfriend went here 20 years ago. Campus is a confusing mix of outdated buildings surrounding a large open courtyard, accented by gross and dingy bathrooms, a smallish library, and two measles cafeteria lines.Clearly the nicest building here is the admin offices,  us no one is surprised by that, I'm sure.  I will say that the classroom interiors are a little better than expected, and ones I've been in reflect dedicated and talented teachers, particularly in the languages. The campus is covered in flyers and posters advertising various club and group meetings, and it appears the student body is pretty active in terms of extracurricular options to pad their college applications with.One thing I really don't get though, and this is several campuses. To just this one, is the covered parking for students. Can't we spend that money on educational supplies? At the very least, I hope they're covered with solar panels on top, but judging by the dated look of the auditorium tech, I seriously doubt it. I have seen very few computers or other technology on this campus, though I have yet to find the science lab(s).  Read Less
