I graduated back in 21, one of the best high school experiences I had. Teachers really care about every student and engage with college applications. Many different AP classes were offered, you end up feeling like you’re competing with everyone in your class.

Posted by a community member on 11/2/2023I graduated in 2021, and throughout my time being at this school, I am happy to say that it was a blast. This school really prepares students for college despite what the score says on here. Teachers are amazing and will engage with students and help in any way they can when it comes to the applicat

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers kids got away with being the bullies of the classroom and if the other students fight back or speak out the will get detention and the bullies got away with name calling and cursing. Some teachers were sincere and really cared that was a handful, others weren't and played favorites especially if the students were a teachers/ staff member children/child. The food was not good at all they rubbed the kids money. The Principal was very unfair and unjustly.Parent Review4y ago - Collegiate School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCollegiate is a family run school that doesn't care about education. The curriculums and textbooks are years behind. Students aren't prepared according to the current educational standards for their grade level. Older students spend half the time lounging around and aren't prepared well for a life beyond high school. The school doesn't care about prepping its students to get into college and succeeding there. The current headmaster received her job from her mother who was the headmaster before her. She now employs her daughters, family friends, and college students who have little to no teaching experience as teachers. Private schools should have knowledgeable and experienced teachers and good resources for classes and extracurriculars. They should be places that guides your children as they grow into young adults. This school is more like a baby sitting service. Don't waste your money there.Other Review2y ago - Ybh Of Passaic-Hillel

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to school here in the mid-nineties, and graduated 8th grade with honors. This school really prepared us for high school, so much so that everyone that I went to school with got placed in advanced/honors classes in HS. I can't say enough what an amazing and wonderful experience it was to go to this school. I'm heart broken that it closed. I would've loved for my children to have gone here.Other Review8y ago - Noble Leadership Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMost teachers are not interested in trying different methods or finding effective ways of helping students engage or process information. The selection of teachers recruited at the school is poor and the material provided is very basic.Student Review1y ago
