Small Class sizes give students the attention they need. The basketball and soccer teams are very competitive in their section.

This school is very tiny, adn if you're a new student, like I am, it's hard to fit in with all of the cliques. There aren't any sports teams pretty much, and I have nothing to do in my spare time.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 New York used the New York State Assessments to test students in grades 3 through 8 in English language arts and math, and in grades 4 and 8 in science. The results for English language arts and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles and the science results will be added when they are released in the Fall of 2013. The tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of New York. The goal is for 90% of students to meet or exceed grade-level standards on the tests.
