  3. #3 Best Private High Schools in New YorkHorace Mann SchoolBronx, NY·Private School·PK, K-12·Rating 4.32 out of 5 153 reviewsParent: A current HM parent whose child joined 9G, I had big expectations that have been exceeded. I expected the school to nurture our child's intellectual potential, it is the manner in which this has been cultivated that is impressive -- the depth of critical discussions (feels like college-level engagement), feedback for growth, and a deeply personal and caring network of support from student advisers to social and academic issues is intentional, accessible and thoughtful. The school deserves its STEM reputation, not just due to faculty, facilities and rigor, but equally because of the curiosity-driven and creative space teachers bring to the experience. One thing for HM to change is to bring more prominence to more sports that student athletes do well in, from waterpolo to fencing and field hockey etc. Sports and teamwork are also part of the HM equation but are sometimes overlooked....

The academics are extremely rigorous and quite challenging but it pushes you to be the best version of yourself.

Even beyond the unique facilities Brearley has to offer, I will always love 610 as it has felt like my second home for so many years.

Those of us who did, and survived till graduation, had four memorable years, starting with the realization that (1) we weren't the smartest kid in the class anymore, and (2) this made for easy camaraderie. I went on to three universities and degrees, for which Regis had prepared me well.

It has brought out the best in my child as the students are encouraged to be well-rounded with the offering of many clubs and activities. The most challenging part is the sense of competition between the students, however, there are many of the students who support each other and it is not as much of a "pressure cooker" as other schools. I am glad we chose the school and I would send my other child there without hesitation.

FON and S!NG are the major events, and during these times, almost the entirety of the student population comes together to put together the productions.

In terms of academics, Dwight ensures that students are equipped for the workload college offers, resonating with the campus atmosphere, cultivating meaningful student-teacher relationships conducive to college life, and developing the independence necessary for collegiate success. Socially, though occasionally cliquey, it offers diverse clubs and events for student exploration. Exceptional food, including the mini in-school corner store: The Coop, enhances student experience. However, challenges in addressing racism and a weak athletics program exist. Nonetheless, under new leadership, proactive steps are being taken by both DEIB director and the new head of school to promote inclusivity and school spirit.

For some reason, the school's most tough, time-consuming subject is English. Some of the teachers teach it in an excellent creative and analytical manner while others make it extremely hard and tie it to unwanted leftist, woke ideology like in the senior course (Critical Race Theory, Queer Theory, Feminist Theory, Gender Studies, Marxist/Leninist Theory), drawing attention away from higher pursuit in useful subjects. Students spend so much time on "English" to keep their grade up that a lot end up majoring in similar topics in college, because they are unable to compete with top students in business, law, medicine, and technology. If the English taught more grammar/reading comprehension/inference in a rigorous way, students would be better prepared for the SAT/ACT and graduate free from woke ideology.

Many people are proud and happy to be here, across varied positions, teachers, administrators, staff, counseling etc. A huge school that manages to foster a sense of community! The students are very competitive with themselves, but for the most part very supportive of each other. Any student can find their passion and their people here, but they need to look and be involved. Fosters independence; diverse socioeconomically; many interesting perspectives; academic rigor; incredible resources; excellent facilities. That being said, not for every student; still need to deal with DOE bureaucracy in a big place; a couple of teachers have checked out or can’t teach; mental health is not the best here. Aside from that overall, Stuyvesant is pretty much what you see is what you get. Lots of pressure junior year. Heavy workload. Little sleep.

  25. #3 Best Public High Schools in New JerseyBergen County AcademiesBergen County Vocational Technical School District, NJ·9-12·Rating 3.75 out of 5 566 reviewsSenior: Overall I think my time at Bergen County Academies was positive. There are ample opportunities for students and the school encourages students to take initiative in guiding their academic path. A unique positive feature of our school is the freedom it gives to students; we can go wherever we want on campus during free periods and go to nearby restaurants for lunch. The most negative part of BCA is its lack of focus on sports. Sports are a big part of my life and many other students' lives, but doing sports you have to forgo doing clubs and taking electives. I know at other highschool sports are a much bigger part of their schools' culture, and students don't have to choose between them and academic opportunities at those schools....
