Open Quote I have had a very good experience with Einstein. My daughter has done very well. They offer a wide variety of courses, so there is something for everyone. The theatre program is AWESOME! It's a diverse school both racially and economically, but I think that's a good thing. Close Quote

Open Quote I am currently enrolled at Albert Einstein as a freshman. When I first entered as a freshman I worried about loads of work and bullying. But that was just me worrying about nothing. The workloads were distributed equally and fairly. The teachers are helpful and advise lunch help or after school help if needed. Like every school there are a couple of teachers that are not all that great. The academics are everything that a student might ever need, they also expound upon any academy you are interested in. There is a lot of different cults and religions at Albert Einstein so it is a very mixed school. People are generally carefree about their styles and do not need to worry about bullying. The principle, Mr. Fernandez, banned strapless clothing and really low pants but generally lets kids were what they know is appropriate and he literally drills into kids heads, “No bullying, report if someone’s being bullied “and etc. The counselors push you to go the extra mile and to take IB or AP classes, the counselors are also available after school, before school, and during lunch .The sports are great for anyone who wants to join.

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
