My son went there every year for 3 years for science and history regents prep. Classes are given during the week and on the weekend. It is good if you can find out what teacher teaches the class. It is a good way to brush up on material but if you have a lot of trouble this is not the review class for you. I do think they have private tutoring too.

At the end of the program, I was contacted and told that the school would like to give my son more driving time. After a brief discussion I found that they wanted to give him some additional driving over and above the required amount due to his special learning problems. They gave him three one on one driving lessons over and above the driver education requirement. He passed his test on the first try. No one ever attepted to charge me for these additional lessons and I was told later that they were uncomfortable letting him drive before they were sure of his abilities. Great Experience with wonderful people.
PROS: Professional, Experienced, Patient
CONS:

They are good for all levels . My son started there when he was little and advanced quickly through the years. They have competitions all over and they offer a lot of practice. It is not cheap but not many sports are. It is worth the money if your child has a true interest.

I've had young children enrolled here, and their classes are great for clumsy kids and gangly pre-teens to gain poise and a little control. I saw a big improvement in my soccer player after a few months of dance classes, even though she was only in grade school. She took ballet and jazz and tap, but seemed to like tap best. I'm sure it was because she was allowed to make noise. What's good about Brandy's is the classes continue up to high school and older competition levels, so if your child really takes to it, there's a lot of room to grow.
However, mine bailed as toe shoes loomed. The recitals were fun, and the pictures will be embarassment fodder for years to come.

Shakti has been around as long as I can remember. They are conveniently located in St. George at Bay Street Landing. Their teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful. It's not competitive there and people don't go there looking to hook up. Pam is a wonderful teacher and her classes are always packed. The Bikram (hot) classes are worth a try. I enjoy them. Sometimes parking is hard to get, especially Saturday mornings when the Cromwell Center has an event. Keep that in mind when setting out. Classes are very reasonably priced. You can pay per class or buy a ten class card of unlimited monthly card at a discount.

This is where I went to high school. And my sister.
This is one of the more "progressive" Catholic High Schools in New York. Being a private academy, the focus is academic. They have labs for computers and languages and focus on those who are college bound.
As a private Catholic school, the tuition is high. But the quality of the education and the excellent standards are what this school is all about.
Professional staff, beautiful campus, and the idea that to make it in today's world you need to be a cut above the rest makes this a great place to go to high school.
If you are looking at a Catholic School education with a focus on college, you couldn't do better than this.

My daughter attends Yeshiva Merkaz Hatorah for girls in Staten Island. It is an Jewish Orthodox girls school from preschool-8th grade.. It is a very small school. There is one class per grade. The girls get an excellent Jewish and secular education. All of the teachers are experienced and dedicated. I would recommend this school to people living in Staten Island, looking for a good school for their Jewish daughter.

The campus is huge and the school itself is very different then it was 10 years ago. There is a wider variety of student at CSI now. The campus is very nice but takes forever to travel because of the size of it. The radio station has also come a long way. They also have a decent gym. The continuing education department offers a wide variety of classes. It's worth checking out. I'm just not sure it's where you want to spend the next 4 years of your life, unless you can't get in anywhere else.
