Open Quote I have grown up in this school, and I have had a wonderful experience. The teachers were so nice, and so were my classmates. The classes are fun and they help you learn well. They are also acceptive, for I have same sex parents and everyone was warm and welcoming to us. I have made it into a high ranking public school, so no, the education is not bad at all. Close Quote

Open Quote This school is the equivilant of a rich private school. The teachers are drastically over paid and under qualified. Most have been teaching the same subject for over 20 years without keeping up with what is new in the teaching world. The Principal gets a free house with the job, which is just plain ridiculous. And when the students join the East Hampton Middle school in 7th Grade they find themselves far behind East Hampton students in Math, Science, and Foreign Language. Amagansett school is small minded with the dilussions that they are a private school. Close Quote

Open Quote I am an alumni of the Amagansett School. Almost 8 years later, I still reminisce on my experiences there. I learned so much, and owe most of my success to my experiences at this quaint school. I still hold the dear friendships so close. I wouldn't trade my 9 years at the Amagansett School for anything. It is an amazing place and I am so blessed and extremely proud to be an alumni. Close Quote
