Our experience with Bayside High School has been wonderful. From the very beginning, the school has created a supportive and welcoming environment where my daughter has truly flourished.Academically, she has earned good grades and has become much more independent and responsible with her schoolwork. Beyond academics, I've seen tremendous growth in her confidence, social skills, and willingness to engage with others. She genuinely enjoys going to school, which speaks volumes.What I appreciate most is that the teachers and staff know how to create a space where students feel safe, respected, and encouraged to be themselves. As a parent, I can see the difference this has made in my daughter's overall well-being. She comes home happy, calm, and motivated, and it reflects in her nervous system—she feels secure, supported, and excited to learn.I'm grateful for the positive influence Bayside High School has had on her development, not just as a student but as a young person. I highly recommend the school to families looking for a place where their children can grow academically, socially, and emotionally.

This school has left me with lasting trauma regarding my child’s safety. In 2019, my four year old son was able to leave by himself undetected during dismissal. I found him half a block away by himself looking for me. It was pure luck that I was walking toward him and didn’t come up from the other direction. He could have been abducted, hit by a car, you name it. The school has since changed their dismissal procedure. When I called the following day to talk to the principal, they swept my concerns under the rug. Abysmal handling of both safety and justified parent concerns.

A whole new level of terrible administration! I sent emails, but nobody replied except the Assistant Principal. I went in person to submit the required documents, yet nothing was corrected, so I followed up with another email—and again, no response. When I went back in person, they told me the documents were lost, without even an apology. If you ever submit any paperwork to this school, make sure you get a receipt or proof of submission from the person who takes it.
