Cicero North Syracuse High School

The rules here don’t make sense. Some of the teachers suck at their job. You get dress coded if you wear anything that they don’t like even if it doesn’t violate the dress code. Ms.Owanachek is more like ms. Wannachecking you out. For real she doesn’t know privacy or fun. A guide for CNS • no having fun • no swearing • no being creative • you cannot wear anything that might piss a teacher off (really depends on their mode that day) • guidance counselors will tell you not to apply to colleges you may not get into which is BS • no pajamas • no sunglasses • no hats • don’t stop at your counselors office too much it seems to annoy them • teachers don’t like to help students • people can’t open a door if their life depended on it • the security lady will not let girls go to the bathroom before 7:10 or go to your locker or look for a teacher • if you show up at 7:40 they will give you restricted lunch • the busses don’t watch for people in cross walks so be careful • if the busses don’t hit you then the moms dropping off kids are just as bad at driving • do not cross the street by the canteen • you have no rights here (literally) it’s like living in N. Korea, you can and will get in trouble for anything no matter if you did it or not • watch out for the blonde with the walkie talkie she will write you up for not doing anything wrong • be careful when it rains cause the floor is slippery as hell. I saw a dude with crutches slip and they did not have a wet floor sign out (could’ve sued the school) • they do not care about your personal life no matter how bad the issue is and they don’t do anything to help • the bathroom seems like a popular place for drugs and sex (btw) • if CNS was a smell it would be ass and weed So that is a guide to CNS and remember they would rather have new jumbotrons than new books, or art and music equipment. And also you have no rights and no mind.

Overcrowded. Block scheduling sucks. The road it's located on will make you feel like you're in NYC during rush hour. Did I say its overcrowded? Good elective program. Overcrowded, overcrowded, overcrowded.

After attending all 3 years, I can say CNS is a great high school. The amount of advanced placement/honors classes available, clubs, sports teams, and music programs is insanely high for a public high school. If you participate and actually put an effort into classes and extra-curricular activities, you're going to get into a good college with a great scholarship. I'm almost certain all the negative reviews are from students who didn't try in school, and are disappointed that good grades and scholarships weren't just handed to them.

I went there for all 4 years and I have to say this school is extremely unprofessional. The food is terrible the staff is extremely biased basically they don't pay any attention to the students side of the story when it comes to student teacher conflicts. They look at students as inferior minded who have no credibility to give there perspective. Most of the time it's immature kids arguing with the teachers. But alot of the time it really is something the teacher is doing and they just don't care they let it slide every single time. For example plenty of times teachers sent me to the dean and extremely exagerated the truth or lied to get me in extra trouble and had very biased opinions against me. I would tell my side and i'd be the one to be in trouble every single time and the fact back then you aren't really armed to give ur side of the argument because your going up against peoole with fully developed minds in there 30s , 40s who have been doing there job for over 20 years so theyll always win there intelligence and experience even when they actually in the wrong. They take full advantage of the disadvantage you have because they know they can get away with it. On top of that senior year 18 years old grown adult working full time great grades showed up late every once in a while... Id get written up for showing up late to school coming in at 9am had study hall first block sometimes preffered to sleep in instead of going to study hall.... Grown adult getting in trouble for my own choice... To show up late this isnt my job like im a grown adult how can you tell me when to show up and when not to atleast im there but if u skip school completely and dont show up at all they always let it slide... This school would rather you skip then show up an hour late...
