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.

I have only been at Brooklyn Emerging Leaders Academy for two years but I have seen many positive and negative aspects of the school. Many teachers have been involved in less than favorable situations and many students have been ignored through their fight for change. Though the education here is positively amazing and challenging, the environment is a bit flawed.

I love how they incorporated sisterhood and allowed us to shine in many ways. We were able to put a lot of energy in different factors: community service, sciences, and performing arts. One thing they can fix is planning the college process earlier. It felt kind of rushed having to juggle exams and college offers. I wish I could've focused on one at a time. Otherwise I like how safe the school made me feel.
