Fort Hamilton High School

this school is great i am a freshman and i love it here. the environment is very friendly and the teachers are nice and help you out a lot. im in the honors and the students are all smart and if you have any academic problems they have free tutoring one on one and Saturday academy which is pretty cool. they have a lot of teams and clubs, the teammates are very friendly, you become a one big family . this year Fort Hamilton made into the top 50 public schools which i am very proud of since the school is over populated, the principal and the staff really do a good job to keep the school one of the best. the teachers and the coaches really push you to your full potential. i love this school cz i really connected with the students and the teachers. if i had to suggest a high school it would be Fort Hamilton. GO TIGERS!!!

Amazingly I had reviewed this school in 2010 and let me tell you what a difference a year makes! While my son originally excelled in all areas, he met with a teacher who "had issues" with him...talk about holding grudges! She did everything in her power to destroy everything he worked for and ensured that he was going to fail her class no matter he did. All areas of his work suffered because of ONE teacher who was allowed to bully and berate him. She had it in her head that she would fail him and she did. BRAVO teach!!! Great job! You should be proud of yourself.

im a sophomore in this school. So far its been academically ok due to the fact that this school is more sporty than learny. some teachers are awsome and are really nice while some hold a grudge for no apparrent reason. The students treat others with respect. But are lacking from learning.

this school is horrible. do NOT go here. your better of in telecommunications. just today in fort some girl splashed acid in another girls face & now her head, face, & eyes were burned. not only that but other stuff happens here too, its education is okay but it is really violent & its graduation rate is extremely low, like 60%.

My daughter has grown so much at the Ft. There are so many opportunties to develop skills, make friends and develop leadeship skills. There is many terrific things about a big school. I work in a small school and wish we could offer half the oppotunites that are available here

My son is a military dependent. He came to Fort Hamilton as a transfer freshman student. We were so worried that he would somehow just become a number at the Fort. We thought as a military bratt he would somehow not fit in. However, my son excelled with the help of fellow students and great teachers. He is now a senior who is graduating having been involved in the arts (Jazz Band, Marching Band, Symphonic Band, musicals, plays, sports). He is an A student. It is a great school and I encourage anyone going to High School to come see for themselves.
