    What is truly special about St Stan's is their emphasis is on developing the whole child, intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually.

    This high school offers students the opportunity to pursue a career as an Aircraft Maintenance…read moreTechnician in the aviation field. Although some staff members have a poor attitude, the teachers work hard to help their students succeed. A significant issue is funding; the school appears to lack adequate support from the Department of Education, which forces students to cover expenses out of pocket. If you are an incoming freshman or a parent considering this school for your child, I would recommend it if your child is interested in working on a variety of aircraft. This is a great place for them to develop those skills.

    excellent high school for technical career minded kids…read more i just didn't give a shit during HS because i didn't give two shits for anything during HS. Hardly any girls when I use to go there. Heard it got better. But during my days there, had to go to different high schools or malls to try to get girls. Study hard and potential to make shit ton of money out of this high school is definitely there. My Pakistani friend who stayed for 5th year to get extra license, went onto Vaughn college, and then use his Aviation degree + Aviation Powerplant/Airframe licenses along with his Vaughn College Engineering degree and is now making 80-90K a year for JetBlue. I regret not giving a shit back in HS. But I'm not exactly "I must make a lot of money" type of person. There's more to life than just money. But if you don't have this mindset, then study and I mean really study in this high school. Don't touch any of the Aviation girls. Each one goes through about 15 boyfriends a school year and you can get the herps just by even exchanging words with any of them. One of the best high schools in Queens in terms of prestige and the quality of the teachers (both academic and shop teachers). I still think about some of my favorite teachers from that school time to time, such as the late Mr. Colleti, Lazar, Serena, Marianna, etc.

    One of my kids is now at BHSEC Queens; the other graduated from BHSEC Manhattan a few years ago. (I…read moreapologize in advance for any overlap in my reviews.) Bard Queens is the second 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. 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 Queens is for you. It's a small school, and sports are not a huge part of the culture here. It's in an unlovely part of LIC, close to Laguardia Community College and various subway lines but not much else. 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 extraordinary: Most have PhD's, and they are devoted to teaching teenagers, constantly available to meet with them and provide extra help. The administration is terrific, and the office well run. The building is modern, well kept, and light-filled. The student body is quite diverse and active in a variety of clubs and activities. College counseling is just beginning for my child's class, but things seem pretty organized. 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.

    Do not do it, do not do it, do not do it! Weak upper…read morefaculty, disinterested parental/school interaction. School prepared to do anything for ratings at the expense of the students education, well being or personal safety. I wish I had sent my child anywhere but here. Huge, Huge disappointment for my child's education.

    We have two children at this school now. One is 8, the other is 5…read more Great stuff about this school I wrote about previously is still true -- small number of students for the 5 teachers on hand means the kids get a ton of attention that is exactly tailored to their own stage/age/interests and helps them move along a lot faster on the topics they are good at, and move well on the topics where they have difficulty -- there is a great mix of ages and styles around, and the mixed ages actually work together on stuff. Kids learn and see the good examples of kids 1-2 years older and that really motivates them to advance. "I want to do that!" At the same time, no stigma if you are a little behind on something and working with some other age groups -- Very little homework. It means the school time is working. Our kids are advancing quickly and doing a ton -- but teachers don't have to push off all the hard work to the parents in the evenings. There is tons of productive time in school since "classroom management" doesn't chew up half the time. What attracted me here, as a cognitive science PhD from Stanford myself, was the stellar intellectual grounding for the school its founder (Columbia PhD and former faculty) and multiple veteran and PhD educators on staff.

    My child completed grade three at QPS this week, and upon reflecting on his last day of the…read moresemester, I'm motivated to write a few comments on this school. In the hallway on the last day of 2018-18 school (presentations day), some of the other dads and I compared notes and we found agreement in the following factors of QPS: 1. All our kids, without exception, love their school. Not like... love. Every dad in the group shared that our kids have never once tried to get out of going to school in the morning. Not a single time. Our kids love their school, tell us they love their school, and love going to school. This factor, if it were the only positive one, is extraordinary. 2. All our kids spend their school days learning "stuff", like kids in schools everywhere. However our QPS kids have all developed a strong ability to effortlessly synthesize all the stuff, and offer considered opinions to questions or topics that bridge multiple areas of knowledge. We agreed that our kids *think* first, and then *speak*. 3. The staff of QPS is uniformly excellent. From the principal to the PE coach, the TAs to the specialist learning consultants, the QPS teaching and learning team is literally amazing. QPS teachers enter into partnerships with our kids. Our kids feel validated in their individuality, and motivated to learn. My kid has been saying since his kindergarten year that he never wants to leave QPS. As a parent in today's NYC, I am deeply grateful that QPS offers my child such a safe, happy, inspiring place to grow into the confident and kind young man that he's clearly on track to become.
