Posted November 23, 2008

Private school funded in part by German government. Almost all classes tought in German, some in English. Very small community consisting of around 350 students form Pre-K through 12. Seniors receive bilingual Abitur as of 2008/2009. Large part of student body consists of children of German, Austrian or Swiss Diplomats. Most only stay at the DSNY for an average of 3 to 5 years. School curriculum is influnced by German school system. A strong focus on the Sciences and German hIstory and literature is the consequence. Homework load is minimal, however class participation is rated very highly. In all a very good school that challenges it's students and offers an open-minded education.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
