Harlem Success Academy 1 is truly a school to be emulated. To see that it already has been proves that more need to be created. The teacher, parent and children are all held accountable to their part in process. There are 4 schools in Manhattan, 2 in the Bronx and I believe 2 in Brooklyn. This is proof that the methods and materials used is working. Harlem Success Acadmey 1 should be honored for leading the way on how our children should be taught. Harlem Success stand out as a school all its own. The teachers are well trained and truly go above and beyond your expectation. For a public school, the teaching, guidance and encouragement my child receives is truly a blessing. My son already knows and is preparing himself for his graduation. He know that he is part of the graduating Class of 2024!

My daughter will also begin grade K at HSA 4 on 8.18.10 and I am so excited. We are so blessed that she has been accepted and will receive a top notch education. I have done extensive research on this school, attended various community events regarding HSA, and attended all of the mandatory meetings to ensure her acceptance. I am positive that my daughter will become the "brain doctor" that she has set out to be!

My daughter is entering kinder in the fall of 2010 and I am so excited. My husband and I were at one of the orientations yesterday and I love how friendly and enthusiastic all of the staff is. The technology in the school is amazing and we love all of the bright colors and books that they have in order to keep the kids interested. I cannot wait for my daughter to start school there.

The best public school in the city-hands down!. I'm so fortunate to have my two daughters attending HSA 2 (Kinder and 2 grade). Devoted teachers and staff, committed to excel and bring the best out of every child. It is not only about the academic aspect but also about the school culture and its values: Agency, Curiosity, Try and Try, Others, No short cut! A true recipe for success in life now and in the future. If only more public school in this city were run like HSA!

I am a parent of 2 HSA3 students. The only thing I have to say is PHENOMENAL!!! My 2nd grader does rudimentary algebraic formulas and my kindergartener reads chapter books! If you're interested in an excellent, free, public education for your child this school is the benchmark for charters!
