"A sixth grader here at Borel I feel that the teachers are EXCELLENT! All my siblings have gone to Borel and all say the same thing about the teachers. I'm extremely happy here. The principal truly cares and goes from class to class seeing that all is good. The new music teacher is excellent the music program is challenging and fun. Borel is an I.B. school and I am extremely happy here. Borel is an AMAZING school."

"The principal, John Cosmos, is an amazing leader and an amazing human being. He runs the school better than any principal I have ever met. When you come to him with any issue at all he listens and is very responsive. The teachers my child has this year are top notch. We are very happy. M. Aronoff"

"I am a seventh grader at this Borel. I think the school is great for the developing middle schooler because of its diversity and supportive staff. The music program is phenomenal and the after-school activities are very popular. In terms of academics, I feel that students who are better learners need to be challenged more. I am in Algebra this year, but in sixth grade everyone was put into the same class and I felt like I was not learning to my full capacity. However, the teachers work hard to help each individual child. Overall, Borel is a wonderful school."
