Teachers like to point blame instead of making a solution !

There are many teachers who do not care if students pass or fail, in their own words. That is what tenure gets you.

Teachers have to want to help their students further their education. Most teachers I have been in contact with are not concerned.

The principal has a positive outlook and I believe he does a great job!

I'm neutral because I am not sure so I cannot agree or disagree.

I've known students to get harassed and they become the ones in trouble. They do very little in that aspect.

I have called the school on multiple occasions one for instance being my daughter's report card should have been 10% higher than what it was the addition was wrong on the report card the school is yet to call me back. I have had other issues and I'm still waiting from a phone call from may 2017. I'm guessing after five or six phone calls I won't be getting a return call back. Good job on handling issues Niagara Falls High School.

I have two kids at NFHS. They have both received top AP and Regents scores, which shows me this school is as good as any other school out there. As with every other school, if the student is willing to work, the resources are there for the student to excel. I also appreciate the diversity at the school -- it's at least as educational as the classes and my kids have become much more open to talking with anyone, anywhere, anytime as they have moved through the NF school system. The principal, Mr. Bradley, is excellent and shows every day how much he cares about the students. Thanks, NFHS!

Parent of student who attends nfhs now hates it bulling is tolerated teachers talk to students anyway they want because they know they will not get fired. I've never had such a horrible experience with a school before until my child went there.

I hate this school with a burning passion. As you can see by the other reviews, people who went here in the past also have not recieved a proper education. I hate the whole student body because most of them are very disrespectful and immature and utterly stupid. I cannot wait to graduate next year as one of the few that have recieved a diploma AND a proper education.
