New Design High School is located in the Lower East Side (LES) section of Manhattan. This New…read moreDesign High School Review is based solely on visiting to see movies as part of the Rooftop Film Series. New Design High School was visited twice to attend the following Rooftop Film Events: The"Polite Society" Advanced Screening was held in 2023. Because it was raining that day, we were directed to New Design High School's Auditorium in the lobby instead of the school's rooftop area. New Design High School's Auditorium is spacious, clean and the seats were comfortable enough as we watched Polite Society. "Rooftop Film Presents: 20th Anniversary of Napoleon Dynamte" Screening was at New Design High School this year. This event celebrated the movie Napoleon Dynamte, created in 2004 & which is considered a cult-classic. We enjoyed viewing Napoleon Dynamte, as it was displayed on New Design High School's rooftop floor via a big screen surrounded by beautiful art murals after the sun set. New Design High School has colorful & vibrant murals / artwork. Rooftop Film Events we have seen showcased at New Design High School have been well organized & well-coordinated. Looking forward to any other Rooftop Films screenings that will be at this school.

It was awesome , the weather was perfect the roof walls were sprayed painted with graffiti. It was huge, and when the sunset it was a perfect view of city. Ore Ida was giving Tarter Tots, I grabbed a couple of Tee Shirts and buttons. We were allowed to bring snacks and drinks to enjoy while watching the movie. My family and I really enjoyed our time. FYI: The amount of steps you have to climb to get to the rooftop is not for the weak. I took my time walking up and it was worth it.

One of my kids went to BHSEC Manhattan, and the other is now at BHSEC Queens. (I apologize in…read moreadvance for any overlap in my reviews.) Both schools will give kids a top-notch education, but the schools are not for everyone. Bard Manhattan was the first of its kind, a public high school with an accelerated program that takes 2 years to complete. The second two years are for college-level work (and, indeed, kids graduate after 4 years total with both a HS diploma and an A.A. degree from Bard College). Those 2 years of college credits can be transferred to some 4-year colleges, giving kids who want it a huge savings in both time and money. So the work is advanced and fast-moving: that's a given. Kids have to take a placement exam (not the SHSAT) to qualify, but even if you do well, it's hard to say whether BHSEC Manhattan is for you. It's a small school, and there aren't as many clubs as you can find elsewhere. Sports are not a huge part of the culture here. It's a long walk/bus ride from the nearest subway line. Writing is very important; you don't have to be a great writer at 14, but you should probably be open to improving in this area. Those are the caveats. The benefits of this school are enormous. The quality of the faculty is amazingly high (lots of PhD's), and they were always accessible for advice/extra help/mentoring. The administration was responsive, in my experience. College counseling was knowledgeable and hands-on. The classes are small and most are seminar-style. Lots of discussion, lots of back-and-forth in the classroom, lots of writing (see above). Expectations are high; you're expected to work hard and be intellectually curious. If you want big lectures, multiple-choice tests, and anonymity--forget it. The BHSEC model has expanded to Newark, Cleveland, and New Orleans. Clearly, there's a demand for accelerated HS education. For the right kid, these schools will be life-changing. As with any educational choice, the key is to know yourself.
