jamaica high school really isnt as bad as people say it is. I can truly say that most of the teachers there really care about the students and their education.
I can say that the new principal in this school is so strict and if you don't obey the rules of the school you will get detention so you better go to your classes. They will think that you are cutting your class. I do follow the rules of this wonderful school. This is a very perfect school to be in.
Being an almuni, i must say that Jamaica HS is a very good school, the teachers actually care about the kids future.
The kids don't care and I'm afraid my kid will get hurt.
This school is the worst, the principal tries too hard but the students just won't budge, theres no hope for this school

Jamaica High is definintley an asset to this community, I commend Principal Dickler on all his efforts to better this school, keep up the good work JHS! -Mrs.Dickler, the principal's wife
Jamaica High School is a wonderful school, with excellent standards for education. Principal Dickler truly understands how to run an efficient school where students can also participate in extracurriculum activities. Also the Gateway program is and excellent program inside Jamaica that opens oppurtunities for the young students to get a head start on college. The football team is the bomb!
