Averill Park High School is nestled in the eastern part of the Capitol Region of Albany, New York, where our students have the opportunity to experience the best of what city and country life have to offer. Only three hours from both New York City and Boston, and four hours from Montreal, we are centrally located to enjoy much of what is offered for cultural experience even on a world level.

With a population of roughly 1,100 students and over 100 faculty, our students are provided a multitude of opportunities which are available in
larger schools, while maintaining a small school atmosphere. Technology is incorporated in many classrooms, and our mix of older and younger faculty provide a unique blend of backgrounds, opportunities, and ideals for students to respond to.

Students are involved in a multitude of sporting, after school, and community programs. Each year, students are given new opportunities to expand their minds and knowledge base, as the environment of the school responds to changes in culture and anticipates future developments.
