(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have heard many good things about this school and have recently experienced it myself. My daughter was once a student of this school and I pulled her out and enrolled her into another school, a decision that I later regretted. My daughter did not like the school, but I think it was GREAT. the principal is awesome and so is the rest of the faculty. I am seriously thinking of letting her go back. I think this school is one the best in Queens.
