Sheepshead Bay High School

Sheepshead Bay High School

Sheepshead Bay

I survived 4 years in this place!?!?! You've got to be kidding me!…read more The year after I graduated, Sheepshead Bay High School was voted as the 6th most dangerous public school in all of New York City! The average daily occupancy for this school is approximately 2,800 to 3,000. This is assuming that no one skips on classes (which is highly unlikely). In the original planning of the school, the occupancy was meant for approximately 1,000. This is a classic case of maximizing absolutely surplus value (socialist term) amongst inner city schools. Here are my thoughts on my 4 year tenure at this education facility... Teachers: The faculty is highly trained and dedicated in educating and motivating the student consensus. Amongst the various subjects studied throughout Sheepshead (ie: European History, English, Law, Math, etc...), each of the teachers were stringent in the teaching of their subjects. I will take this moment to thank my former teachers, Mr. Trant, Mrs. Newman, Ms. Johnson, Ms. Kovat, Dr. Starr, Ms. Mathews, and many others that instilled in me the desire and importance of achievement in the classroom which ultimately translated to achievement in life. It is a rare breed to find teachers that will go above and beyond the call of their duties to educate and help their students understand the elements that make them successful. For this, the teachers of Sheepshead Bay High School are not to be taken lightly, but rather, Thanked for their courage and dedication. Students: The demographic of the student consensus is greatly diversified, thus representing the population that resides amongst the Sheepshead Bay community. Most students that attend Sheepshead are there not by choice, but rather by zoning mandates. The average tenure of a graduating student at Sheepshead is approximately 4.5 to 5 years. Facility: There's no denying that Sheepshead Bay High School is an extremely old facility. Although some renovations have occurred in such classrooms as the Mock Trail Court Room and Computer Labs, the general education classrooms still lack the updating that's long overdue. With increasing temperature indexes during the summer, air conditioning devices need to be installed in every class room. Environment: During my senior year, fights occurred on average of 5 times a school week. The fights are generally caused by deficiently performing students in a means of either gaining "respect" or attention. The students who are there to educate and better themselves generally avoid conflict situations. Overall the main deterrence in Sheepshead Bay High School's ability to ascend to the upper echelon of high schools in New York City is the inability of the student body to accept that humility, understanding, motivation, dedication, and goals are the five essential elements required to succeed. Until the student consensus has a drastic change in mentality from that of oppression to opportunity, the rigorous negative publicity of this education facility will continue. Despite the exceptional performance of the faculty in attempting to help students achieve, it is ultimate the student that needs to accept and be willing to succeed.

Worst years in my entire life. As an immigrant and minority, I went to school with fear everyday…read more It is great that the school was shut for good.
