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.S. 145 divides students into five different academies which creates competition within the students themselves. However, it also allows students create a strong community within their academy.

The school involves students to respect people and property. Anti-vandalism, discrimination, bullying policies are enforced. Guidance Counselors, Deans, Assistant Principals, Security, Teachers and the Principle are always on the look out for trouble-makers
