i would never send my son to this school as someone who graduated from this school this will never be one of his school choices.
The staff is very friendly and try being supportive. But students have way too much freedom to do as they please. Rules are not enforced. There is no consequences ever for missing projects, not doing homework, or cutting classes. They provide strict security getting in the school but could care less who gets out. Students are allowed to leave the bldg whenever they want. It's as if the school is more concerned with their own safety than that of their students. For the last 2 yrs my son has not brought home any books nor homework. I recently found out He cuts almost everyday. ...yet he's never been held back. I have decided to transfer him to another school.
I disagree with the comment about a having a small job right after high school. I am a senior and I have my A+ certification. I have a choice or pursing a career in IT or continuing my education by going to college. I will be going to college next year with my certification and I will have a career. Maybe if you would have stayed at Dodge you would have had the same opportunities that I have. Good luck at your new school.

This school is not too much of a good school. I was a freshmen at Grace H. Dodge, and I had to get out. When I was there, there were fight almost every week. Most of the teachers do not teach well. In addition, most of the kids didn't attend class. Although,the programs they offer are wonderful. You want to have a small job right after High School, this is the school for you. But, if you want to have a career after High School, this is not the school for you.
The Principal has a clear vision for the school. I love being able access my son's inofrmation on their new on-line system. Keep up the good work Dodge!
This school is better than zone schools and many small schools in the Bronx. An added bonus is the career pathways. Even better as a large school students have the option of changing their vocations if they lose interest
it has great learning abilities. and it can get my daughter on the right track
Grace Dodge has change in the Principal's first year. We actually had a school dance, I got to see the inside of the Principal's office(because he leaves his door open) and the building is so much cleaner. I am a little sad that I am leaving. Of course I will miss my friends-Go EMT! But now that I am leaving they are starting many new programs for students. To you Dodge students enjoy and see ya later!
This school is a nice big school and it is good with kids.
