I must agree, this school is excellent. Staff members care about the students and always have time to speak to parents. This school is one of the best schools in the Bronx.

Students must take at least five Regents Exams in order to graduate. Scores of 65 and above are passing; scores of 55 and above earn credit toward a local diploma (with the approval of the local board of education). The goal is for all students to pass the tests.
