This school is not as great as it seems. For what it's worth you're better off sending your…read moredaughter to a public school where she will have better opportunities. Teachers don't challenge students to reach their full potential. Very few teachers genuinely care about the students. The only time they make you feel welcome is at the open house. Once your child is in they treat you like it's a business.Too much segregation, white girls don't mingle with black girls. Guidance is poor! If I had to do it over my daughter would have attended public school.

Please heed to this warning. If your child identifies as a person of color, please do not send them…read morehere! I write this review to save a future parent and child the aggravation,discrimination, and racism that occurs within this school. I was not the only poc student that experienced this, and unfortunately I probably wasn't the last. I experienced several acts of racism, in front of faculty and behind closed doors, and each case practically fell on deaf ears. The administration will make it seem as though the situation has been handled but that's the farthest from the truth. The same perpetrators will still be rewarded in the end, if they are favored by faculty. The faculty also has a hand in the racism as well, whether they openly support it, reward the aggressors in the end, or commit their own acts of micro or macro aggressions. I say all this to say, save your time, and save your money. The education is also subpar at best. Even if you are not a poc student, if you don't feel like wasting your money, don't send your child here. The most they'll learn is the lyrics to sweet Caroline . Not trying to be rude at all, but it's the truth. Do with this information what you will.

This school is not affiliated with a specific parish unlike the other local catholic schools (such as OLA and St. Benedicts.)

Both my son and my daughter have received an excellent and safe education here at Ivy Prep in the Bronx. When my child was interviewed for kindergarten, we were told that she is well prepared and will be ahead of her peers with the education and preparation she has received here. My son began his journey with services like OT; PT and SEIT at Ivy prep. They were able to accommodate his service providers within their building and my child was able to receive all of the support he needed. In the Throggs Neck community it is wonderful to have a place like Ivy Prep to prepare your children for a bright and productive future! Highly recommend!!

The recent changes have put the school more on the map, so to say, but there is always room for improvement. My own experience there is that, while I am glad my mother chose that school, I feel my full potential was not reached as the school picks who they want to prosper as soon as freshman year and offers them first pick of great opportunities and tosses the remaining to the rest of the students when rejected by the chosen few. Overall the education is good, the school partners with St. John's to offer college credits that can be useful in the future. It is the social environment of the school that could use improvement.

I waited until my daughter graduated to add this review. This school started well when my daughter…read moreentered in the 6th grade but by the 8th grade, it went downhill. They had several teachers that were great throughout but a few of the new teachers were nothing but subpar. My daughter became ill one day and her teacher ignored her raised hand for 10 minutes before allowing her to go to the nurse... alone! The school is on the 4th floor... what if she fell. She mentioned she was not feeling well to the guidance counselor as well, who also sent her downstairs. They tried to call me but I missed the initial call. The nurse eventually told her she could either sit in the main office or return to class. Return to class?! The school is on the 4th floor! What happens if she falls?! She ended up having a virus and out for several days. I tried to call to complain and the parent coordinator lied about the principal leaving town. My husband ended up walking in without an appointment to find him there and made them talk to him. I also filed a 311 complaint. The algebra teacher was inexperienced and failed thesem of teaching. They talk to you like you are stupid but guess what...I have a Master's degree. Please don't. I tried to talk to the principal but again the parent coordinator managed to block us and other parents from meeting with him. Even the students created a petition to remove the teacher. My daughter passed her regents but only because I had to pay for private tutoring. I do not recommend this school.

At the graduation, prior to the commencement they were playing Tupac music. I found this to be very inappropriate.
