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.

This school is pretty decent compared to many schools in NYC. Dream gives you ample room to succeed and even if you are not the sit-in-a-classroom-and-learn type of person you still have a chance at success. The main thing I can complain about however is the communication. In the time that I have been here it's always been off and everything gets said last min which can cause students to miss out on opportunities.

We build a community and we all love each other and learn and cry together. It was a great 4 years and I cherish every moment in high school both good and bad.

Academic deans speak to children if they are talking to someone on the street. Coaches are just as bad. There is a noticeable lack of professionalism here. Things ar...

They allow bullying. I have spoken on situatios too many times, and theyre often left unsolved. When ou are a parent who tries to advocate your child. Suddenly, you cannot get in touch with anyone.
