It's probably got one of the best communities in the state! Everyone is everyone else's friend. The smallness of the school is what makes it so great.

The classes are challenging and I get home exhausted but there's a lot of room for creativity and I can't think of anything wrong with the school; the different departments are all strong and balanced. Even though it's a 'Math Science and Engineering' school, the English and foreign language and social studies classes are challenging and fun and rigorous! The teachers are all helpful and approachable. No one can rightfully feel left out or scrutinized (students have a cozy relationship for the most part). It's a sad thing, to have to leave in a year!

It is a school full of different personalities. Most would expect that to be a bad thing, but the school nurtures all types. Anyone can find a place to belong here. It's all about doing well and finding who you are at the same time. I love HSMSE.

HSMSE has an excellent group of teachers who are dedicated to ensuring student success, all of whom have worked in the field that they teach. Even though the school is centered around 'math, science, and engineering' the english and history departments are just as great. the school is small, which provides an intimate environment where all the students for the most part get along. all 440 of them. The school is a place where you can be yourself, be academically challenged , and enjoy yourself!

HSMSE is a school different than a regular high school, with a close, small community, dedicated and excellent teachers, and situated on a college campus with access to its facilities

This is the best school if you really are ambitious and want to be successful. The teachers and staff have come from a variety of excellent schools. Some teachers are not only educators but are engineers architects and mathematicians. All the kids and teachers know each other and everyone blends in.

It's a small school. All the students know each other, and the teachers know the students on a personal level, not like in bigger school where they barely remember your name. It gives the school a feeling of welcome-ness.

This school is one of the speciallized high schools in New York. The teachers and staff are amazing at this school, especially the ones in the Science and Engineering departments. Not only are they teachers but they are aslo engineers, architects, etc. Our math, english, and history department are great as well. I am still amazed on how well rounded these teachers are, Only the Best! The only downside of this school is the lack of extracurricular activties and sports, there is some.... but not too many.
