Wappingers Central School District

"WCSD is filled with wonderful families and teachers that care about our children. The school has been in top of implementing extra help for kids that need it and the honors program is excellent. Brinkcerhoff has incredible teachers and children. Our family has been happy with the responsiveness and attention to our children."

"Make the school days shorter and breaks longer cuz nobody wants to be at school for 9 months straight and start summer break in May and end in December"

"this is the absolute worst district . my child was abused by teachers and students. the school is absolutely disgusting. my child was punished for things she didn’t not do by being locked in a closet with needles and big heavy boxes by her head. she was sat by a rusty desk that had old food that my child was allergic to. she was barely checked on and has a mental disability which she had to stay in this little closet for hours and it was hell. she was accused for things she didn’t do by a child who is a teachers favorite. she falsely accuses multiple kids for things that they don’t do and says disgusting things to these kids . the kids would tell the teacher and they would deny it and say she wouldn’t do that. they don’t believe the kids. I am so so happy that my child is done with this particular school. the girl who did this to my kid went to the district and made school a living hell for my child. my kid sat on diarrhea on the toilet seat. this school is not clean and kids do not feel safe in these schools. this principle is new but this school needs a new one. she is insane. i could go on and on about this school ."

"Good school and very good teachers at the John Jay Highschool but unfornetly I must give a two star due to how Im struggling to see my childrens schedule because I have put in correct password and username but it is taking it as wrong pas and acc. Tried to recover it by simply adding the recovery email but it is taking very long!!??!?!?!?# Bullying problem is also still going on of course, especally due to how my child experinced it in Fishkill Plains Elem. Must in fact add a much more stricter policy but once again what can I expect from a public school."

"Gonna give it a solid 4 right now, the teachers are nice, a bit pushy and other teachers I've seen and heard not mine have been a bit rude, albeit I might have not had context. The kids for the love of God are the closest things to savages that are not living pieces of flaming garbage. A couple bad apples to ruin the bunch am I right? The lunch ladies are nice and so are the people who make you put your pin in, and lastly I learned some valuable information from this place and this is where I got my working papers, for any kid who wants to mind their own business I would say come here if they are good at ignoring annoying things, and for the kids that are annoying get out. And one last thing, they have a good tech class system and the gym teachers well half of them are not the greatest (one of them) the food is ok good price for ice cream and they got a lot of clubs and they allow the inclusion of other clubs, all in all. A good school from my perspective."
