I love this school. The teachers are young and very dedicated and they are like the kid's pals but get the job done. They make it fun for the kids. The faculty is amazing at how helpful they are and care about your child. Mrs. Brennan is an amazing assistant principal. I totally recommend this school. I wish it went up to HS.

The teachers in this school are doing an amazing job despite an administration that, frankly, is questionable at best. As a parent of two students (both graduated) I have had the opportunity to observe the school for some time. The principal is difficult to work with but teachers work very hard to compensate and give students a good education. With a few exceptions, the majority of teachers are highly qualified and very dedicated. With more parent support and a new principal this school would thrive. There has been an increase in extra activities.

Teachers are professional and motivate students. My daughter loves ' drama' club and the teacher, Mr. Georgia. He is also an exceptional English teacher. Hope drama class is still in the program for next calendar year, 2008-2009.

The teachers are quite professional and strive to teach their very best in quality and quantity. I would like to especially commend Mr Park for being there for the kids and parents in 608.

i dont like this school at all. they dont give the students time to go to their lockers in between classes making them carry these heavy book bags. this can cause serious back problems. they also dont have enough school supplies nor teams. they to put the students in more activities.

I have two sons presently attending IS 25. One is in Special Honors Class which I can only compare to my education experience in private school. Get ready to work hard. It requires a no nonsense attitude when it comes to homework, reports, studying and participation. I have to commend the school for holding the students to such high standards and giving them valuable tools to take with them to high school, they are going to need it. I also want to add that in my experience with the school I never have to worry about the safety of my sons. The teachers, deans and assistant principals have a strict attitude when it comes to student behavior and hold the kids responsible for their actions, attendance and punctuality. I would highly recommend IS 25 to parents considering the school.

This is one of the best schools. I was in this school and most of the teachers are good teachers. This school might be strict but, it's for your own good.
