I wish I could go back in time, because it truly was such a great school with great resources. Like every other school, it had its pros and cons, but the biggest pro for me was my ELA teacher. She wasn’t just a great teacher academically, but someone who made a difference as a person. Her warmth, de
Posted by a student on 5/23/2026Absolutely horrible experience. My niece was humiliated, bullied and NOTHING was done. Countless emails and phone calls. The dean is an atrocity and should be investigated. ZERO regard for student safety and emotional support is nonexistent. If you have the opportunity to send your child elsewhere R
Posted by a community member on 5/5/2026At my time at Bleeker, I really discovered my love for mathematics. All of this because the teachers actually prepare engaging and interesting lessons for their students! They are very funny at times but still gets the point across. The teachers are overall supportive and very kind, and definitely s
Posted by a community member on 9/9/2025Overall, this school is pretty good, except for some teachers who like to yell at students. What I find unacceptable is the school security guy. He is a very rude person and disrespectful to others.
Posted by a parent on 12/20/2023JHS185 is a good school and most teachers treated us fairly. Mr.McDonald is the best teacher I ever met in this school:)I wish Ms.Mshar will stay at this school and not retire. She funny and kind....

School is inclusive and staff does great with communicating everything that goes on in school. My child really thrived here and enjoyed it.Parent Review2mo ago - St Mel School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEverything at this school was traumatizing for my 6th grade daughter, who felt that she didn't have a friend group, as she said it felt cliquey, because as she said, "If you don't have friends by the first week, you won't have any at all." She only liked one teacher, who she had a study hall with. I don't recall the name of this teacher, but I think he taught 8th grade History. Besides this, my daughter felt as if she was all alone, and we resorted to going to a public school as an alternate option. Would definitely not recommend enrolling your child into this school, and I would suggest looking at The Master's Academy, a school down the road. My daughter didn't want to go potentially through that process again at another private school, so I didn't look at this option. Friends have said it was a good experience, so I would recommend it.Parent Review9mo ago - St Mel Catholic Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEnrolling my kids in Catholic school was one of the best things that I ever did. I can be sure that they are receiving a great education without the confusing messaging sometimes found at NYC public schools. St. Mel's has great pastor, active parent association, forward-thinking principal, and - yes - a security guard.Parent Review7mo ago
