I know Pat-Med has a good music program in their schools
I've seen some parts of Medford that I really like and some parts that are a little shady. But overall, I wouldn't say it's a bad area.

Re: Medford?

i grew up in north patchogue (one block from medford) and pat-med was a very school district-i think it is just like any other place on long island/suffolk county-some blocks are gorgeous and others are eeeh-but overall I think it was an awesome/safe place to grow up-where was the house?

patchogue is definately huge-the only thing you have to be careful with if you were looking at east patchogue is that parts of that actually go to South Country School District (Bellport) There is also the village of Patchogue which can be nice (my grandparents lived there up until they died) but parts of it are not so nice now

yeah i was just discussing south country schools today with another LIW member and I decided to stay away from them, thanks for your input too though!

Re: Medford?

my best friend grew up and now lives in Medford. They got a nice rancy with a full basement on a dead end street (they are the last house on the block). She LOVED growing up where she did and loves that she is raising her kids there

Re: Medford?

I grew up in Pat Med and still live here and went through from K - 12. If you need to know of an area just FM me. Also, Pat Med is division 1 and has an awesome sports program for football and soccer etc..

There music program is also very good.

Some schools are not in good areas and some are. Ill let you know.

Re: Medford?

I grew up In East Patchogue. I dont know what it is like now but when I lived there from 73 to till I graduated in 91 it was nice. Medford by egale estates was a bad area back then also Patchague village down by River Ave was never that great. The School district is good. They have a great academic program.
