Townsend Harris is the worse school ever. I graduate 2026 and so far it’s been beyond badgering
Posted by a student on 10/25/2023terrible. The teachers never give lesson or prepare their student to take tests. They expect students to prepare on their own since 59 percent take summer prep school. Therefore the one who does not will fall behind. There are no help you are on your own.
Posted by a community member on 10/28/2017Very challenging, students are very competitive and teachers regard their students with care and respect. Homework and tests require students to be really focused.
Posted by a parent on 9/8/2017Townsend Harris High School is filled with pompous teachers with little regard for their students. Teachers at Townsend Harris High School overload the students under the disguise of "getting students college ready" (practically drill this message into the student's head!). NEWS FLASH- The students
Posted by a student on 10/20/2016The workload was challenging with very high standards. This would either push you to do and be better or break you. It is a great school academically.
