Ballston Spa Senior High School Reviews

Rated
by a  Student  
I agree with the above review, teachers are great but the administrative is overbearing and takes no interest in the students themselves. Sports programs are extremely political and students arent given the chance to be responsible young adults.

Despite having some great teachers, the administration shows little regard for the student's interests. Community involvement is non-existant. Has the potential to be a great district but overall disappointing.

"They have a newly built building which is absolutely gorgeous and very well laid out. In general the staff is caring, but firm. Only bad thing is that parent involvement is not encouraged. Yet!!"
