| 7/27/2012 | student | At first you'd think that the teachers had no soul: how else would they be able to give out that much homework with a clear conscience? But honestly, you soon get used to the crushing workload, high grading standards, and ultra-competitive environment (check the lobby, folks. Bronx Science is not the place for people with low self-esteem) The students are brilliant, and that's why you end up enjoying the high school rather than hating it. Beyond that, it has a wide variety of clubs (so many options... so little time), great teachers, and a sterling reputation. |
| 11/25/2011 | parent | Perfect in every way! Highly supportive of parents and educating all of the college process. Wish I could turn back the hands of time and go here myself. |
| 11/24/2011 | student | Simply the best high school in America. You can grow, prosper, and challenge yourself here for four years, in the setting of a comfortable environment. With a vigorous curriculum, Bronx Science allows you to choose what direction and choice of classes you want to take throughout your years spent here. Offers almost all AP courses, plus higher achieving courses that earn you college credits. You might not realize it in your freshman year, but this school provides you with the opportunity to be anything you want to be. Politician, doctor, chemists, physicist, historian, businessman, musician; you name it - and it's very much attainable. ** P.S. Even a Specialized High School like Bronx Science provides individual student-teacher attention, despite the many false allegations. |

| 11/8/2010 | parent | The administration and faculty are incredibly dedicated, enthusiastic and committed to providing the highest quality public education possible. It is a challenging yet nurturing academic environment whose depth and breadth of formal course and extra-curricular activities are without equal. |
| 6/29/2010 | | School has a big variety of classes for basic studies as well as advanced. It's lacking personal attention to the students. None of the teachers shared nor passed his passion, interest and love to the subject they're teaching. School is more like a college environment where you learn on your own how to swim along with everybody else and survive. Almost no social life, any kind of interesting events in the school. |
| 5/1/2010 | student | Having transferred here from Stuy, I feel that Science is the friendlier and more laid-back of the two. Despite less freedom (Stuy has no detention policy) and an odd location, Science's teachers helped me excel at subjects I had struggled with at Stuy. The pace is slower and material is more tought-to-the-test (be it AP or Regents), especially in math and science. Overall, the music department here is much more selective/better than Stuy's, and it's easier to get into most AP courses. I especially like the 24/7 access to current grades and email alerts for missing assignments; Science is more tech-savvy than any school I've seen. I miss Stuy's gorgeous building and more advanced material, but at Bronx Science my grades are better AND I'm getting a good night's sleep. |
| 11/7/2009 | parent | Because it is the only school that makes mensa candidates doubt their capabilities |
| 11/7/2009 | student | It's the best there is the faculty is great. |

| 11/7/2009 | other | Aside from the great education, and opportunities for research and advanced study for gifted students, the people I met there are my lifelong friends and compatriots. The diversity of people - both in terms of their ethnic backgrounds and number and types of talents - is unmatched in any other experience/school/organization that I have encountered in any area of my life. And I graduated from an Ivy League university. Is there a higher compliment than that? |
| 11/7/2009 | other | The most stimulating intellectual environment in which I have ever found myself. |
| 11/7/2009 | other | Bx Science prepared me for a life of the mind in a way no other school could have. |

| 11/7/2009 | parent | Bronx Science is an enormous opportunity to study in a diverse environment surrounded by individuals seeking success.

I was privileged to have such exposure, and continually realize how much I have profited from the experience. |
| 11/7/2009 | other | Rigorous classes; numerous electives; and smart, talented and diverse student body represented from the 5 boroughs |
| 11/7/2009 | other | This school has a great reputation behind it that extends beyond New York. I would not be where I am now if not for Bronx Sci, worth the daily 3 hours I spent on the subway to go! |

| 11/7/2009 | other | Great research opportunities and challenging classes with a really diverse student body! |
| 11/7/2009 | parent | A place where such a diverse population exists - but joined by the desire to get a quality education. Even now, Bx Science's reputation is nationwide and people are so interested to hear that I went to Bronx Science. |
| 11/7/2009 | parent | Bronx Science has helped me grow so much as a person and as a student. Without Bronx Science, I would not be who I was today and would not have met the amazing people there. |
| 11/7/2009 | student | There's a reason the Bronx High School of Science is always among the elite high schools in the United States and the world. Four years at Bronx Science prepares students for the rigors of a successful life and transforms them into open-minded, independent thinkers. |

All this emails are very easy to forward to my daughter and my husband. I'm glad that they worked to incorporate and keep updated this great 21st century communication tool.

| 10/24/2009 | student | As an incoming freshman, the commute to Bronx Science is one of the biggest factors that will make you stop, hesitate, and consider your local high school. Those brave enough to enroll, however, soon realize that the nearly 2 hours on the bus, train, and walking is more than worth it. Bronx Science, seemingly secluded from the rest of the city, was my passport to a more cosmopolitan education: I learned, for example, AP Physics, Global History, Studio Photography in the classroom, and, unlike most city high school students, expanded my education by exploring the city during my commute. My classmates were equally as diverse, both in interests and backgrounds, and interacting with them both in class and is extracurriculars proved to be beneficial to my leadership skills. It is easy for underclassmen to feel ambivalent towards the school-- I once felt the same-- but come your junior and senior year, you will love it, as you can claim unity with a class that has made it through the commute for all four years! Stick with it, embrace it. There is a sense of community at Bronx Science, if not in the administration, than at least in the student body, that does not quite exist at other schools, that you will not fully comprehend until you graduate, but will help form you in ways you do not even realize. As a current senior at an Ivy League university, I am proud to be an alumna of one of the most premiere high schools not just in the city, but in the entire country! |

The teachers are always trying to help, and at times it seems that the administration is working against them and the students. The most I've learned here is from students and not teachers. Our extracurriculars are very underfunded so we need this money. Please anyone who is reading this, help us out and vote for us. |

| 9/20/2009 | student | Diversity! Enrichment! Atmosphere! Education! Quality! Pride! Friendship (friends and teachers)! Productiveness! Family! Happy! Success. |
| 9/20/2009 | parent | It's a great school! The Bronx High School of science has great teachers and lots of fun activities. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | I love Bronx Science because it's a school that's filled with opportunities for each and every student. They have tons of AP and honors courses which can help prepare you for college, and a variety of clubs and teams. There's something for everyone there. In addition, most of the teachers are great and readily available to help you if you need it. They're more than teachers as well, they're also your friends. And although they demand a lot from the students, they let us know that it is for our own good. And these are just some of the reasons I love Bronx Science. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | its the only school that doesnt have 'clicks' such as jocks and cheerleaders. We are all pretty together. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | Bronx Science is a great school, which gives students the opportunity to learn in the presence of kids with various cultural backgrounds. Also, the teachers at school are also very helpful, and assist in any way possible to make Bronx Science a better place for us students. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | It's a great school and well-known throughout the country. Many of the gifted students from this school go on to Ivy League schools and we have six Pulitzer Prize graduates! |
| 9/20/2009 | other | Although this is supposed to be a supercompetetive high school (and it is), I felt that people helped each other a lot more than they hurt each other. The challenges we faced we made it through only because we had each other, and I think that because the challenges are more challenging than at most other schools, we supported each other more and that makes this school really special. |
| 9/20/2009 | parent | It is clean The staff and security is good The teachers are dedicated to teaching There are many foreign language classe to choose from. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | Bronx science is the best school out there. With such variety of classes to take and the school activities are very fun. The sports teams are very successful and the students are very smart. Bronx science for the win! |

| 9/20/2009 | student | The environment at our school is terrific. The school is home to great minds and great personalities. Its sad that I could only spend four years of my school life there |

| 9/20/2009 | parent | We have more school spirit than any other school and we're proud. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | there are a lot of amazing teachers that want to see nothing other than their students learning about history, short stories, linear equations, chemistry equations, etc. they truly care about the students and their only wish is to see them achieve above and beyond. Many teachers give up most of their lives just to see the ah-ha moment a student has when the light-bulb in their head goes off. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | I love Bronx Science because we're the best specialized high school ever. We have a beautiful courtyard, a lot of freedom and overall just plain fun. We're some of the smartest kids in the whole country and we're proud to show it! Go BS Wolverines! |

| 9/20/2009 | student | I love our school because of the amount of freedom they give us. They trust us to behave, and not to skip. If we do skip, we have to deal with it ourselves and take responsibility. It also offers many academic opportunities like intels and lots of aps. The school is challenging but if you work very hard, do well, and take advantage of all its many opportunities it can really help you in life :D |

| 9/20/2009 | student | Open campus, great teachers, and great people. What more could you ask for? |
| 9/20/2009 | parent | Challenging academics and brilliant classmates that inspire you to be better everyday. That's Bronx Science. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | Bronx Science is really a great school, asides from having really great teachers and class selection, there is also a wonderful supportive atmosphere and a lot of great students. The Bronx Science community is really diverse and very supportive of each other, even though its thought to be a competitive school, most students there look to help each other out.

| 9/20/2009 | parent | The teachers are amazing, the facilities are incredible, and bronx science has resources that no other school in the state can hope to have |
| 9/20/2009 | student | I love Bronx High School of Science because the school is so big and there are so many students and teachers its always fun to be there. Yes, the work load is a bit bigger and tougher, but its worth it. We have to work hard for our grades and our teachers support that, and are wonderful and and are there to help us with any problems we have. The students are fun and exciting, and older kids are very helpful and cooperative with new kids who come in not knowing anything about the school.

We have fantastic facilities to accommodate all these classes, too. And despite the high level of performance, the school still manages to maintain a certain level of FUN through school-unifying activities in which they go all out in celebration. All in all, it's a fantastic school. |
| 9/20/2009 | student | Its a good environment, and i love the handball courts, but its a long commute. |
| 9/20/2009 | parent | It is truly amazing from the perspective that once the classroom door closes, the learning experience provided simply takes you away. |

| 9/20/2009 | student | This school was great because of the people. The variety of peoples perspectives and different opinions changed me for the better. I'm not so fond of the Principal but hey, not everything can be great. |

Although at times it feels excessive, it's a great learning environment in which we are pushed to pick the classes we want and to do the best we can do while managing our time ! It's very friendly, and there are many things you can do with your friends during school hours. Join a club, a team, be in the play, student gov't, just hang out- we've got it all ! |
| 8/6/2009 | parent | Excellent School, Most advanced in curriculum. This is one of the most competitive schools in the US. You need to pass the SHSAT to get in. |
| 12/21/2008 | parent | a pressure cooker. Good academics, but a not peasant place to be an adolescent. |
| 12/15/2008 | student | This school was worth the 2-hour commute from queens. Great intellectual climate, great instruction, great inspiration for the future. Attending Science really drove home the power of positive peer pressure. When everyone pushes each other to do their best, everyone wins. |
| 10/4/2008 | parent | Whenever I have had a question and have contacted a faculty member, I have gotten an email back almost immediately. The faculty goes to great lengths to make this school personalized. The academics are 1st exceed any standard imaginable. This has been a delight for two years. |
| 1/7/2007 | parent | Prepared my daughter for an Ivy League college like no other education could have. She said her first year of college was easier than courses she took in high school. Also left her with a view on the 'real world' given the diversity of the student population; she was surprised at the relative homogeniety of college in comparison. |
| 4/28/2006 | parent | excellent school. provides students with a solid foundation for the future. |
| 4/26/2006 | student | Bronx high school of Science is an excellent school in which any child would love to attend. The food is good. The students are discipline and are friendly.The teachers there a caring and responsible in their own way. Every child has the ability to do their best and if you set your mind to it along with the work that is to be done. I can reassure you, that you will soar to the top |
| 4/13/2006 | parent | Too much for some students. Bronx Science really needs to shape up, offer less hard courses, and be more leanient. Some teachers need to retire. |
| 4/13/2006 | parent | Lovely school, its amazing. they couldnt do anything better. |
| 3/28/2006 | parent | Bronx school of science is one of the better schools in the Bronx. It is of high standards and prepares your child for success in almost any college that he would want to attend. His chances of being accepted at the college of his choice is greater. Your child will get a good education education. The school also offers a wide range of extracurricular activities. Parents are encouraged to stay involved in their chil;d's education. |
| 3/28/2006 | former student | This is the crown jewel of the NYC Public School system. The curriculum is challenging without being overwhelming as is often the case in schools seeking to be 'prestigious.' There is no shortage of involvment from both parents and alumni alike, as most graduates opt to send their own children there (as I will). Science is a crucible where imputities such as self-doubt and meekness are burned away, and the resulting student is ready to take on, and conquer, the world. |
| 11/2/2005 | student | Bronx high school of science has been great since I started 2 years ago. |
| 10/27/2005 | parent | This school was an excellent choice for my child. He has learned so much in his 3 years there and I just adore it. This school is fantastic. |
| 10/3/2005 | parent | great school - your child should be able to manage if they like competition. |
| 6/19/2005 | former student | Bronx Science is one of the premier schools in NYC. They have excellent faculty and unique classes. Teachers are passionate about their work and some even have doctoral degrees. |
| 5/14/2005 | former student | Wall Street Journal newspaper ranked this school 49 among top feeder schools to some of the best colleges and universities. Two other New York City public schools ranked better : Hunter College High School and Stuyvesant High School. |
| 1/29/2005 | former student | This school is a wonderful school. however it is hard to get there and keep up the work so i would suggest parents should discuss with their kids. |
| 11/25/2004 | parent | wonderful school... the english department was terrific... they taught my daughter how to be a much better writer than when she first entered... she truly became a more confident person when she left. |
| 7/27/2004 | former student | Graduated here in '75. Active in school alumni affairs and aware of changes. School was and always is academically excellent. Student body draws from all over NY/NJ/CT area - very diverse. Terrific overall program - not just science and math. School is very large but lesser-achievers do not get lost to the 'stars'. Lesser achievers here are A students elsewhere, by the way. School, as you might expect, has always been a little lacking in the breadth of athletics. But, I'm sure your kid, if going here, is not a jock. |
| 7/14/2004 | former student | Simply a wonderful school. Very, very large. Remote part of the Bronx but a safe neighborhood. Rigorous science program. International reputation. Tremendously diverse student body. Dedicated teachers. Reasonably well funded relative to other NYC schools. |
| 8/25/2003 | former student | This school was a great experience! There are tons of opportunities for extracurricular activities, teachers go over the top to help students, and the overall aura of the school is great! This high school is very challenging, so if you are a dedicated and motivated student, it's for you! Students will love the classes here! Even though it's a big school, the dedicated faculty makes an effort to know each student individually and assist them if needed. I had a great high school experience ! In fact, compared to classes at Bronx High School of Science, College was a breeze! It really prepared me for college and for life. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! |
| 8/19/2003 | former student | The students at Bronx Science are pretty modest about it, but in fact, it is one of the best schools to send your kid. It's a great stepping stone for getting involved whether it is for community service, athletic activities, social activities, not to mention academic achievements. The school gets a lot of support from the Parents Association, which gives financial support to AP programs for students. A big bonus is the substantial campus space which many other schools are unable to provide for the student body. |
