Summary

Lindenhurst Senior High School is a public high school serving 1,854 students in grades 9-12 in the Lindenhurst Union Free School District. The school has consistently ranked in the top half of New York high schools over the past 5 years, maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the school's performance is on par with the state average in areas like graduation rates and dropout rates, it faces some challenges compared to higher-achieving nearby schools.

One bright spot for Lindenhurst Senior High School is its performance for certain student subgroups. The school's Asian, African American, and Hispanic students all rank significantly higher than state averages and many nearby schools like Massapequa High School and Babylon Junior-Senior High School. However, the school's overall academic performance, as measured by Regents exam scores in subjects like math and science, lags behind some of these higher-performing neighbors.

Lindenhurst Senior High School's spending per student, ranging from $18,888 to $21,196, is in the middle range compared to nearby schools. The school's chronic absenteeism rate, while lower than some nearby schools, is still higher than the state average, which could be an area for improvement. As the school's free/reduced lunch population has grown in recent years, addressing the needs of its increasingly economically disadvantaged student body may also be a priority for the district.

Sunday, September 2, 2012

I moved to the district from Massapequa. I'm Class of 2015. I moved here summer 2011, so I've done 9th grade here and am about to start 10th grade. I'll start with the pros of Lindenhurst High:
-a lot more diverse than Massapequa. I like meeting new people from different backgrounds.
-teachers are very good
-good school spirit
-middle-class, pretty nice student body. A lot less snobby then Massapequa, I'll tell you that!
-the lunch is better than Massapequa's!
-the Drama Club is...indescribably great!
-the Gay-Straight Alliance Club is good...I'm going to be treasurer this year :)
-there are many many different clubs to get involved in
-pretty diverse curriculum.
-the media center is nice and big and the staff is great
And now, we have the Cons....
-school is pretty tolerant towards drugs and illegal activity...in the morning, at the student drop-off on Lewis Ave, there's often a bunch of kids smoking pot, right next to the security guard...:/. Dress code isn't really enforced, either...
-there is a gang presence in the school, albeit not very big.
-my studio art room in 9th grade had a ton of cockroaches
-they recently ruinned the foreign language program...upperclassmen can no longer enroll in French and German as a 2nd LOTE :(
-during a geometry test, my teacher just decided to walk out of the room for a moment, so the class was totally unattended. Everybody just started getting answers from everybody else...weird :/
-some students are very violent
-the district is wayyyy too focused on athletics....
-the science Olympiad team is small and the school doesn't care about it...meanwhile in West Babylon, Farmingdale, even Bay Shore, the Science Olympiad is a big part of school.
-one dean is really good and smart. The other is a total goof. He suspended for 5 days without even checking to see if the kid was in the day of the incident!!!! How stupid!
-the superintendent is a goof, too.
-there are some kids in honors classes who really shouldn't be there and they just annoy the real honors students...
-the guidance department is rather unorganized..
-everybody seems to hate it :/.
Overall, Lindenhurst High School is great if you like sports, but most "nerds" like me really won't like it...LHS is certainly not a failing school, but LHS is certainly not an A+ school either...However I do like this district better than snobby, super un-diverse, and very overrated Massapequa!
