I love the small class sizes which provide a safe setting for students to share ideas and grow as learners. Programs such as taking UW classes, taking the PSAT, and college counseling really make this student body strong in academics. The school culture is spirited and exciting. NYHS provides many opportunities that no other school does, for example, trips to AIPAC Policy Conference and March of the Living (senior culmination trip to Poland and Israel).

Facilities are outdated and need to be updated. No hot lunch options. College prep is very poor. Most teachers and staff are tired and closed-minded. Dress code is very strict.

I cannot think of a better place for Jewish teens to get prepared for college and life. The teachers are attentive and involved. You cannot get lost in the system. Many of the courses in the upper grades are taught on a college level but that shouldn't scare you. They have teachers who have open lun...
