All Teachers Students

I attended Snyder HS and graduated in 1973. I had many inspirational teachers that provided the motivation to succeed.

Loureen canlas: I was scared to attend this school at first due to the reputation that it has. Ironically, I felt I was home during my four years . I was in the science magnet program and it was the best thing that ever happened in my life. I graduated college with an associate in applied science fr. UMDNJ and I have a career as registered dental hygienist. Thanks Ms. Watson for the inspiration.

It was great being a student at this school. It inspired me to become a teacher.

Willie Robinsion: Snyder is a very wonderful school because the teachers treat like your their children. They make sure that you get proper learning skills that you will need for college and basic life skills. Of course they have their problems just like any other school but they do their best to resolve any conflict that have among their students.

Snyder High school doesn't get enough credit. i'm a freashman. I mat not know mach but what i do know is i love it that snyder . i toll my friends that i was going to snyder they frecked out. Snyder is not that bad .But i can see why parents are worried for ther kids. But the parents need to learn that there son or daugther might be bad in school but good at home . The lessons are good for the child's mind.The principal is nice. So, all i'm to say, parents and student, is the school don't make its bad, name the students do.
