Nyack High School has significant socio-economic and racial diversity. To some, it is a perfect model of such diversity. To others, there are problems. There was an article a few years ago about the high school essentially being segregated by race. The economic diversity does bring a share of drug and gun violence as well.
But it's not a school that every person with affluence avoids. There are plenty of schools (Like East Ramapo), where you only would go, if you didn't have a choice. That label does not attach to Nyack High School.
Of affluent families that still choose Nyack High School, they tend to be "liberal minded." The school does have advanced placement classes. A few students each year, rank as Merit Scholars.
There are many families in Rockland County, that would put it on the "avoid" list, but that may largely be due to fear of its diversity.
