I will miss Townsend Harries High School. The teachers and staffs made me feel safe and welcomed. Townsend Harris H.S. prepared me for college. The teachers provide extra help and opportunities for students. I would like to see more school trips.

Townsend Harris High School is overall a great school. The students and faculty are dedicated to the work they do. All faculty are always ready to assist and help in any way. If they don't find the answer to your question, they will immediately try to see if someone else has the answer. The teachers prepare you for AP or regents exams. The teachers care about your well being. The ISS staff are extremely helpful.
