What parents say
Feedback is more mixed here than at the other two campuses — GreatSchools shows 3.0/5 across a small handful of reviews, with some concerns about social-emotional support. A small sample, but we note it honestly.
Heard around town
Signals from public parent forums and listservs and our own parent & alumni interviews. Forum chatter is opinion — take it with a grain of salt; interview quotes are first-hand and shared with permission.
Admissions
Infant/toddler often rolling; Pre-K for All via NYC MySchools. Plan with our admissions planner.
