    Although some have a wonderful experience at Fontebonne Hall Academy, mine was quite the opposite…read more The school recently went through a change of administration and staff. The year my daughter started there 11 teachers left the school. I believe the school is still trying to acclimate to the new principles methods of teaching. The new methods in which administration use included creating a new category of science called PPEAPS. This category of science was an absolute waste of my child's education. Not only was is it a made up category of science that has no proven method or lesson plan, in which to teach, it is not recognized by the NYC Board of Education. My daughter transferred out of Fontbonne Hall Academy without a science credit and is now a year behind in science (which while at Fontebonne she maintained a 98 grade average). The guidance counselor is also unresponsive. My daughter witnessed an extremely offensive racist remark from one student towards another students nationality and reported to the guidance counselor. I also reported it to the guidance counselor and nothing was done. No follow-up to the report no investigation. Absolutely nothing was done. If nothing else, tolerance should be taught along with academics which this school unfortunately doesn't offer either. I suggest that you really lol into this school before sending your daughter there.

    Poly Prep has been a complete disappointment. Teachers assign a large quantity of work, but most do…read moreminimal instruction. There are far too many "work periods" and not enough teaching. Having students work in groups on a packet or on a simple project during class time is not teaching. Assignments are not returned for weeks. One of my children waited 3 months to get their grade back on a paper. It's typical to wait 4-8 weeks to get a grade on an assignment. The choices for literature are not very interesting, and are all very similar in nature. The food is abysmal, and there are almost no field trips. I have no idea what they spend tuition money on. Well, the board's goal for this year is to increase teacher salaries by $1,000,000, so perhaps that is where the $65,000 per student is going. Middle school children are not allowed to go outside during lunch or even leave the cafeteria. I would not recommend this school. You can find much better places to send your children.

    I can't actually comment on the school, but I am in love with their birds! Chickens, roosters,…read moreducks, a turkey, plus turtles and an occasional rabbit, it's a weird little private zoo. People stand with their kids at the fence shoving food in to the animals, which is of course not a great idea--stick to just admiring, so the animals don't get fat and unhealthy and accustomed to Cheetos. Another strange corner of Brooklyn becomes an attraction because of its animals, and it's pretty endearing.
