Sachem schools are good.
If you like the area, thats the district.
Its big district !!! grades are good from what I see at greatschools.net.....I found a home in middle island but I think I may stay on the south shore. I am leaning towards holbrook. Ronkonkoma just has such a bad reputation I dont want to make a mistake. I think I may be reading too much too many choices too make !!! it is like a diner menu
I think you read wrong.........peopple DO NOT talk good about ronkonkoma or middle country - I want to avoid those areas
Dont get me wrong, I do think RP/NE Brookhaven is a much better buy(and there will be those who disagree or have something to say)but Sachem schools are good and that area of Lake Hills is pretty nice.I think you need to get past "what people are saying" and really drill into any community to see if theres a fit.
I agree MidCo has some challenges and should probably be avoided until they fix Newfield HS.

Agree with all in bold.
As Crooks said you have to drill down and see for yourself. Many elementary and "ALL" middle schools are 9/10 in Sachem SD (Source: greatschools.net). You have got to compare that with whatever area you choose as far as schools are concerned. Now schools is just one thing though, everyone has priorities right
please don't act like you're knowledgeable about sachem schools when you clearly have no idea what you're even talking about.
