GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Menands Union Free School District has many extracurricular programs; such as, drama club, track and field, cross country, volleyball and trivia club. It is mutlicultural and Its has a family atomsphere. The staff and teachers go out of their way to make sure that our school is up to high standards. All in all, Menands School is an amazing place to learn.

Teachers put forth much effort in getting the students to grasp the topic. I felt confident and fluent in various language arts/English terms, math, social studies. The teachers gets the class involved in discussions and encourages students to be vocal and participate and show eagerness to learn.

Teachers are good at engaging their students from the beginning to end of class by reviewing homework from the previous night and giving students warm up and journal assignments.

I know my son will miss this nurturing, diverse culture at Menands school. We hope we'll find the same reception at our next school. As a parent, I was welcomed and given immediate feedback.

It was once a wonderful school when my children first started. After the new superintendent took over I’m afraid the school has greatly declined. My oldest will be going to private school for high school as these same kids will be moving on to Shaker High School.
