The community is safe and close, we are successful at everything we do as one of the tops schools in New York and we deserve this money to make our school better considering we have just moved and we needs lots of help. The staff and principle do a great job of keeping everything under contol, and with that all students have in such a tight buliding and we continue to acheive meet great goals despite the set backs.

Baruch is the type of school where everyone knows everyone else in the school. Teacher know students either from their faces or know them their name specifically. I really like this school, because in a tight environment, I enjoy learning together with the people I know.

BCCHS has transitioned my life from being a normal kid to a student who is serious, responsible, caring, and hardworking. No matter the hardships in-stored, this school will train you immensely to become an active and eye-opening individual in today's world. The school's expectations are so high that it is truly powerful and rewarding.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 New York used the New York State Regents Examinations to test high school students in english language arts, math, global history and geography, US history and government, living environment, chemistry, earth science, physics and several foreign languages. The results for english language arts, math, living environment, chemistry, earth science, physics, global history and geography, US history and government, french, italian, and spanish are displayed in GreatSchools profiles.
