Read what parents are saying about Mott Haven Community High School
They enforce very unfair rules such as no bathroom access for multiple periods a day, denying access to students coming after 9:15 am no matter the reason, and only letting one person out of the room at a time. I have been denied access to the school many times due to delays in trains/buses, and everyday i have to wait 30 mins+ just to use the bathroom because the students sit around all day talking to the advisors in the halls or friends in the bathrooms. I used to love this school, but now i dread waking up to go to it since i have to decide whether i should stay at home or waste my money on train fairs and hope theirs not even a minute delay or i risk getting sent back home.

My child called me at 930 Am saying she was denied access in the freezing cold because she was 10 minutes late. She has to travel by train and bus for nearly an hour just so they can send her back home. They wasted her travel fairs, her time, and left her feeling disrespected. This school has been good but ever since they denied access to students for being late my child has dreaded going to school. I even tried driving her to school everyday but that didn't work since traffic held us up for 40+ mins, she has been denied access many times. Her attendance has never been this bad her whole life, and her grades are starting to decline.

Mott Haven Community High School has helped my grandson become an honor roll student. He is at this time preparing for prom and graduation. The schools in the past had no knowledge of understanding how to prepare a black young man for the future. Parents need teachers of a school to help with raising their young men and women. Thank You Mott Haven Community HS. We need more schools in the south Bronx like this.
