Barnstable High School

best school, they know how to treat the students snd teach them very well.

I learned about love. good good love.

8th grade here in come

Great high school!!

Very organized.

Estudei nesta escola por um período e fui muito bem recebido, como imigrante e estudante estrangeiro, tiveram muita atenção comigo e outros Brasileiros.

Barnstable preps young people for higher education by offering programs and classes that attend to the general needs of the student. The nursing, culinary, and child development programs offer hands-on experience and certificates after completion. Overachievers can graduate early, take difficult classes, and start up clubs.

I rated three out of five stars after an incident with an insensitive, unprofessional "housemaster". I will be following up with my complaint in the Fall to discuss the problems that occurred, and what would have been a more productive way of speaking to a young person. (Even staff found the situation demeaning and unprofessional).

Staff either really enjoy their jobs or hate their jobs. Trust me. A student can tell the difference.
Great psychology class, dta class, and outstanding English department.
I felt more support from my favorite staff members during my final year at Barnstable.
I think growing those relationships come with developing maturity and social skills.

The food is awful. Pack a lunch. At least the cafeteria ladies are nice.

The school is broken down into groups of people. Find your group right away or you won't fit in at all. The bullying used to be ridiculous but that's with almost every public school.

I didn't like my guidance counselor. He acts like a best friend but I never felt comfortable enough to open up to him about how I was feeling. He did help me through one or two challenging situations. Most the time, I felt unheard or disregarded.
I know that young people problems seem minor compared to problems adults experience throughout their lives. What adults fail to understand or blatantly disregard is that the issues that arise are the most traumatic for us at that time. We just need someone to talk to who can understand how we feel.
I expected to become close with a guidance counselor that has been with me for five years. It felt like he didn't have the time to give me when I was in his office.

As I grew more independent, towards the end of my high school years, I often felt held back and talked down to. Almost like my voice held no importance because of my age. That's something that really bothered me.

Barnstable is still a public school that helps students succeed academically and grab hold of their future.

Has clean, running water and provides free services, but trapped me for four years.

Food is awful. There are some amazing teachers, but they are heavily outnumbered by awful administration and rule sets. Students are average to above average in terms of friendliness and general niceness. Spent 5 years there, gladly not going back because there will be more graduation requirements than students there eventually.
