    "Excellent school, racially diverse, lots of kids going on to ivy league schools, i.e., my daughter went to Cornell after graduating, her friends went to Swarthmore, Harvard, Middlebury, U Penn, Brown. Wonderful teachers, especially in Honors and AP classes, Excellent music program, honors band and orchestras. The only negative would be, the sports program is not that great, however, Baseball made all state last year. Also, great diversity, where everyone gets along. my kids have never been bullied or pressured. Also, one of the lowest school taxes with high achievement records on Long Island."

    "First off, everyone please ignore the post a few pages back saying that the teachers are horrible and that it is a bad school. Herricks is such a good school that I can easily say that it is an academic caliber equal to and in many ways above many colleges out there, especially the A.P. classes. The school academic program is very rigorous and the teachers are outstanding. I can honestly say I went through almost all of high school without having one teacher I could complain about. I doubt there is any other school out their, other than Jericho and Garden City, where the students as a whole are on a whole other level. And yea are sports haven't been doing to well recently, except for our wrestling team, which is always at the top of their game due to the superior coaching of Coach Forziat."

    "Regarding the post below me, don't take what he/she has into consideration at all. I had just recently graduated Herricks and looking back, they did an amazing job with my education. The teachers there care greatly about their students exceeding and the academic prestige on Long Island is like no other. This school prepares your student for college and their future as well. Currently I am having almost no trouble right now while some of my peers here are struggling. I have nothing but good things to say about this high school and highly recommend you enroll your child here"

    "okay, I am a student at Herricks high schoool so I will tell you how it really is. The work is alot and the teachers push you alot and don't really show any compassion or effort to help you. They just don't care about the schools like Jericho or those nice high schools. The sports are horrible. I am not saying that this is a bad school, but they do put TOO much pressure on the kids. which results the students to do bad in the test scores. I am really serious. So I hope you think where you want your child to go for the next 4 years"
