This is a wonderful neighborhood school. The teachers and administrators care about and enjoy their students. The current principal grew up in Bridgeport which gives him a unique perspective. He does an excellent job of communicating with the families. The older students seem close-knit and supporti

Posted by a parent on 11/23/2015Black Rock School, while being one of the highest performing schools in Bridgeport, is still a failing school. The reason the school outperforms the other schools in our troubled district is due to the exceptional leadership of our principal, Karen Helyer, and the extremely dedicated staff of teache

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDo NOT accept a lottery acceptance from this school. Only the teachers in this school really care for the students, the counselor even picks favorites, usually with the female students. The P.E. teacher only cares for participation and does not care if you physically cannot participate, or even for medical reasons. The teachers there is a lottery in itself, you could get an amazing teacher who really wants the kid to flourish, or one who doesn't care for your student whatsoever.Other Review1y ago - Curiale School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI wish we liked this school more, unfortunately my husband and I decided to enroll our daughter in this school thinking it was a better and safer option for all of us, she is not even a full year in and I have felt disrespected on many different occasions, even when I was walking my daughter in , we were 5 minutes late and the principal didn't even greet us, he told us we were disturbing his class and just walked off. As a parent, I think if it really disturbed his class then why didn't they schedule a meeting with us because we weren't the only ones who were late that day. On another occasion during report card day my daughter never received her report card and I approached the teacher and asked what was going on. I was told that they told her she couldn't turn the report card in do payment reason i had to go to the office and ask and they said they thought we didn't pay our tuition for that month, and everything was up to date. My family and I expected more and respect from this school, we don’t feel welcomed and we feel like our daughter is not included.Parent Review1y ago
