GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Bronx Latin is a great school for me. The academics were no joke, teachers expected a lot, and sometimes it felt overwhelming. But I can't lie, I learned a lot, and it pushed me to be more disciplined. The vibe was competitive, but there were moments that made it worth it, like hanging out with friends during lunch or cracking jokes in class.

The school has some dedicated teachers but is lacking a lot in terms of having good teachers in all subjects , had to be on my own a lot in my learning processes . School feels underprepared in some subjects like statistics or psychology , shouldn't offer ap classes without someone proper to teach them.

Bronx Latin is a very good school. It is very much like a small community where conflict between students is not as bad as it could be. The classes are challenging but the teachers make themselves available to students as much as they can and the Principle is incredible. She knows everyone's name an...
