HSMSE at CCNY is a fantastic school offering a fantastic education. Never before in my years of schooling have I meet teachers as dedicated to their jobs as I have in my 2 years at HSMSE. Along with fantastic teachers and an amazing curriculum, I find the courses quite inspiring and resources available to us unparalleled in the public system. Our new principal Mrs. Bonds is also such an amazingly dedicated woman, everybody on campus can't help but admire her and her vigilant efforts to improve out school and make our high school experience all the better. I'm a sophomore, and I'm loving my time at HSMSE. Close Quote
