I am a teacher at Transit Tech. The information that I see on this page is quite dated. Our statistics have increased across the board. Low enrollment is a city-wide problem, not just at Transit. Low enrollment is due to gentrification, increase in charter schools and ICE. I am glad that the school has not shut down but more excited by the fact that some unproductive staff members have moved on (what a blessing). I am proud to see our recent graduates (16 to be exact) obtain employment at the MTA after successfully completing their apprenticeship program. I am also glad to see that our students are matriculating at Tier one colleges and universities, such as New York University School of Tandon School of Engineering, Penn State, etc., as opposed to SUNY and CUNY schools. In addition, one or our students gained acceptance into military academies, such as United States Military Academy at West Point. These achievements actually took place within the past two years so go figure. It is also a good thing that our goal is to promote careers in STEM and is not designed to just gear students to work at MTA although it is a wonderful opportunity. Change is not an event, it is a process. WE also have an amazing college and career office to support all students in achieving their goals subsequent to graduating, including our special education population, who have also obtained employment at the MTA. Let's keep up the good work at Transit! Please visit us at www.transittechhs.org.

Great school, my kids love this school

This school is very unprofessional and Unsafe, Teachers threaten to abuse there power saying if my child dosent listen to the teacher 1 day then she’ll Lower the grade to 50 No matter if they done all there work or got 100’s. They’re over here giving my child detention just for speaking while there’s other kids Selling drugs, Gang activity & more, And they don’t do nothing. Worst school in Brooklyn NY..

This is an amazing school with a great support Staff. The teachers are caring and help students with their social well-being. They put on great family-oriented events to make the entire community feel included. They provide an Advisory course that helps students to learn social skills, Financial literacy, and health education. They have sports such as Basketball, Soccer, Cheerleading, and dance teams. they also have a Debate team, Gems mentoring, and the best and most supported MBK mentoring group for boys in the entire District. The only drawback is the lack of a gym for sporting events. However, they still make it work by using all available space for student learning and participation. Lastly, they offer an after-school program through the Cypress Hills Program, and they help with homework, sports, fun activities, and provide food at the end of the school day. They stay open until 5 PM for working parents. Overall, this is a great school and the ideal place for students to grow and learn.
