    "ascension school is the best school in the country. the principal mr. mc,mahon is a great principal. the teachers are fun and interactive with the students. the gym teacher is the best mentor i know i actually belive he should be a teacher. the kitchen staff is the best, they are nice and thoughtful for others. the nurse is a overalll great nurse she takes care of her patience with love and care.most of all the students are a good influence on other. as you can see ascension is a great school. infact this here letter is wrote by a 7th grade student by the names of (Ben Frierson) if you want a great future for your child this is the one."

    "Let me just say that this school is horrible. If you're smart you would not put your child in this school. The gym teacher is unfair and my teacher is not prepared (he told us that he was a teacher just because it was his last option.) he takes the wrong notes and brings us down late for lunch and dismissal. Also the principal is very passive. The eighth graders are always on the street corner and if he tells them to move and they don't he doesn't try again. The only good part of this school is fifth grade. The teacher is amazing. He is the best teacher in the entire school. He is dedicated and makes learning fun. All the students like him. If you want a good teacher for your fifth grader come to this school then I would highly reccommend you to take your child out of this school. They deserve a better education than what this school is giving them."

    "There was a typo in my review: The work I witness around the school does NOT compare to current work in the better upper west side public schools."

    "My daughter is in her first year at Ascension, and I must say that I am in love. The school is so reflective of the wider New York City demography, and I get to interact with some of the most committed parents, who want their children to be educated, but also want them to have fun. At Ascension, I feel we are getting the best of both worlds. My daughter is reading, writing and doing math. I am so happy with the school."

    "My daughter has been attending the Bright Little Stars Infant/Toddler Program at Ascension since she was 9 months old. I am very impressed with the dedication and warmth of everyone involved with the program My daughter is now 15 months old and I intend to let her stay at Ascension."
