My daughter has been going to Nest for three years. She's in 2nd grade and we have had an incredible experience with this school. So far my daughter has had three amazing teachers and is flourishing in a safe and joyful environment where she is taught to think critically and developing high standards for her classwork. The communication with the school is excellent and the PTA is very involved and welcoming to all. The best thing about the school is the incredible diversity. There are literally children from every culture and community you can imagine at this school.

I've been a student in NEST for quite some time over 6 years...For me it was not only challenging but allowed me to think for myself. I notice and see my advantage over new students coming in that I am already ahead in courses and pretty much a few requirements left for an advanced diploma in 10th grade ( now 2012) The staff is a blast to work with as I organized an entire club for the school working with the city in less than a day. Classes have around 20 students, and for me are all mixed race, age and gender. Most students are all willing to try and learn, students in class are focused and participating ( even cool kids :) They offer a wide variety of sports and activities that we often stay on the top of city-wide...like in track, baseball...ect Teachers are persistant, they are willing to help you learn and succeed, I have a teacher willing to stay hours everyday almost to help even 1 student, and more cases like that. So I really love NEST, it is a safe and comfortable environment that allows students to work independently and together as well. thanks NEST!

Every parent and child we met seemed driven for the right reasons. And the teachers are capable and striving for excellence.

We absolutely love NEST. We drive our kids in from Staten Island every morning so that they can get a quality education from teachers who truly care about kids. As a past educator myself I have witnessed teachers that are there just for the paycheck and the summer's off but at NEST they go the extra mile to allow our kids to be among the best of the best.

The teachers are the best, they care so much about the kids. Nest delivered beyond our expectations. The children are engaged and learning at an accelerated pace. It's amazing.

We were torn because we have an older child at another public school, but NEST+m is amazing. the children learn at a very accelerated pace, but they are up for it. you will be shocked to see what your K child is capable of learning. the school is rigid, but that's what kind of parent i am anyway.

The education that the kids are receiving is exceptional. The teachers are wonderful and the children adore them. Since this is a school for gifted and talented children, the children are learning at a much faster pace than other schools. We are extremely happy with the education that our daughter is receiving at NEST+m.
