"My child just started the ninth grade and I am horrified about the lack of homework given at this school. She is getting about 15 minutes a day and tells me the teachers are chit chating with the students all day. I am very concerned. I will be looking for another school."

"This school has a terrible principle. Much like the student who wrote a few days ago, our current principle has driven away the best teachers this school will most likely ever see. 75% of our 10th grade class failed the earth science regents due to this principles hireing incapabilities. I fear my lack of education will effect me greatly when i leave for colleg. Of course getting no homeowrk is a students dream, until you get to about 10th or 11th grade and you realize your nightly work load (usually nonexistant) is not preparing you enough for your futue. I am very greatful to be tought by the great teachers i had when they still worked in the school, however it's saddening that many other classes will not have the same wonderful teachers as other did. However, this school's cericulum is very intersting. So I can't complain too much."

"i have been attending museum for the past four years and im happy to say that im in my last. i have seen the school go through many changes and most for the worst. we never go on field trips. we barely go to the musuems anymore. the whole staff who knew about our modules and etc. have been replaced by teachers who are overwhelmed and do not seem to grasp the concept of modules.. the promising module that all seniors were suppossed to partake in at the south street seaport has been removed. all of the school spirit events {spirirt day, carnival, student/teacher bball games} have been elimnated. It's gotten really bad and it makes me sad."

"Museum is the best. They staff is always there to help and support you. They are very caring like your there own kid. They are alawys there to help you no matter what. The kids are so friendly. I had no problem making friends at all. The curriculum is excellent. The teachers know what they sre talking about. The trips to tje museums are so enriching and help us with our projects all the time. The school is just fill of resources that help us like the new labs, and computer room. At lunch time we have the choice of going outside to enjoy the beautiful scenery of lower west side Manhatten or stay in the cafe and mingle with other other peers. Museum is the best school in the world and I miss it so much and I wish I all the schools in the world was like museum!"
