This school has a lot to offer. I have found that once in the school the students are safe and the environment is set for learning.
Posted by a parent on 4/1/2026Guidance Counseling Services - Needs Significant ImprovementThe guidance counselor lacks the interpersonal skills essential for this role. During our interactions, she appeared disinterested and seemed inconvenienced by requests for assistance. Most concerning is her apparent reluctance to work coll
Posted by a parent on 7/18/2025An Institution that supports terrorism within its hallways and perpetrated on it's staff and students. The principal needs to be reassigned at the very least if not terminated from employment in this antisemitic institution. The FBI and police need to intervene here. This is NOT a safe place for you

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’ve been at this school since kindergarten. Now I’m a 8th grader and this is my final year at this amazing school. I’ve learned a lot and how the community grows in faith. However this school is unfortunately closing forever, it is very heartbreaking knowing that this school is a team and family. Take one thing away from this is that if this school reopens again I would recommend this school. I will be going to Townsend Harris High School.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePoor leadership, no real communication with families, high staff turnover at all of their schools. The elementary school is located in a very unsafe location (in close proximity to a mens shelter) I do not recommend anyone bring their student to Growing up green, do your research and go elsewhere.Parent Review2y ago
