Caring faculty, challenging classes, helping kids to do their best, teaching care and responsabilities, very inclusive, organized responsive teachers, and small enough for personal interaction Close Quote

by a student
Thursday, June 23, 2011

The environment is very non-stressful. There is a mutual respect between teachers and students and in some cases teachers act not only as an authority figure, but also as friends to students. All teachers are well trained in discipline and how to make a comfortable, nurturing learning environment. Everyone is accounted for and everyone is loved. You could not find a more open, liberal and amazing school in New York City. Close Quote
