I have thoroughly enjoyed my 4 years at General Douglas MacArthur high school. As a senior I can’t believe how fast the last four years gave gone by. Every teacher I have had has truly played apart in the person that I have become today. The teachers care about their students and want them to succeed. I do have favorite teachers, but I have nothing bad to say about any of the others. Is a great school for education and for feeling like you are part of a family. Their motto is once in general, always a general and I firmly believe that.

I feel my school helped with stuff academically and had good classes towards academics but didn't prepare much for the real world and learning how to survive in it.

The entire faculty has been nothing but supportive throughout my time at MacArthur. I have found it to have one of the most well-trained and engaging science departments on Long Island.

As a junior in this school, I find myself enjoying every class here. The teachers and staff are wonderful and they really give it their all to make sure that the students are learning and feel safe in this school. You are able to express yourself through the many clubs they offer and can talk to any of the wonderful staff here for anything. The students here are respectable and are open to many things.

Ever since i first came into the school, I always felt a sense of home. The teachers and staff make it an amazing environment that makes it as comfortable as possible. They provide a diverse number of courses you can take based on what career you would like to do.

It’s the only high school I went to so I can’t compare it to anything else. The teachers want you to succeed and the coaches do too. The student body is a little too into sports and very conservative. The academics are very good at the honors and AP level and the music is also very good

I was lucky to go to MacArthur HS and be a part of many things. I did the morning announcements, was on the cheer team, did student government, and was a part of many clubs. Although there was not much diversity in the school, clubs such as Pride Club and JEDI Club made sure minorities in the school were heard and seen.

Overall my experience at MacArthur was an average high school experience. There were many great things such as Best Buddies and Spirit nights but there were things that could have been changed. I would recommend hiring new staff, as the staff has not had many changes in the past ten years. There is a lot of favoritism, especially for students whose parents went to MacArthur.
