Sleepy Hollow High School

We have the absolute nicest students (and staff!) in the world!

The student body and faculty are amazing... it is a place with lots of positive energy where every individual is respected by, and respectful of others... there is a very strong academic program along with great student activities, arts programs and athletics. Go Hollow!

Sleepy Hollow High School provides a strong academic foundation and diverse social and cultural experience.

I've been lucky enough to work with the science teachers on a project to benefit children in the elementary grades and their enthusiasm has been amazing. The younger children are all looking forward to when they get to go to Sleepy Hollow High!

This is my daughters first year at SHHS and she is having an amazing time. I feel very secure that she is getting not only a great education, but during the next four years she will continue to grow as a responsible caring individual. The entire faculty are together in their goals...to teach not only academics, but also respect of self and of others. The programs the school offers, whether in arts, sports, drama or any of the other activites are so important and well organized. I am completely happy with the choice we made to go to Sleepy Hollow High School. Go Horsemen!

SHMS is an excellent school. All of the teachers are very welcoming and caring. They work with you to create a goal for you to reach. The Honors classes are great. They are fast-paced and challenging. SHMS has a varitey of extra curri-activities. There are many clubs to choose from (newspaper, yearbook, extreme games club, movie-mania, Math Counts, art club, etc.) Not only do they focus on the studies, but arts, music and sports. The music program is outstading, and the choices of the art classes are too. There is a strong focus on sports. This is an amazing, all rounded school, with a very postivite outlook.

I agree with Cary Gerber (a man I know and like!). We have two daughters -- one graduated from SHHS and got into an excellent college, and one is currently a Senior there. The AP/honors programs are good, and there were many students from my older daughter's grade who were admitted to top-tier colleges

I would not recommend going there. Classes are over crowded.

Sleepy Hollow High School excels at providing a quality education to a diverse student body with varied educational needs. Class sizes are kept small to help insure personalized attention. A caring and knowledgeable guidance department works with each student to place them in the most appropriate, yet challenging, courses. Many AP and enrichment choices to choose from. Great music/large selection of arts programs. Sports too. Teachers, coaches, staff, administration are caring and dedicated. Very involved parents although not reflective of the diversity/demographics in the community. School is responsive to the requests/needs of students. The PTA and Foundation are very active and advocate for, or fund, additional extracurricular activities for students. Many clubs available. School fosters and encourages leadership ability among its students. Community Service an integral part of the educational requirements.
