I.S. 98 Bay Academy 1401 Emmons Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11235

"if im being entirely honest this school is not.. a very good place to be if u are a bipoc student who isnt cis and/or straight, and i mean that. also if ur one who values ur safety LOL.... they dont take care of actual issues.. like at all. the faculty makes it obvious they don't value the safety of their students of color, because if they did, they wouldnt be trying to pin stuff on them and demonize them (literally. its scary. it also usually stems from racial stereotyping.) for reporting stuff that happened to them concerning their safety. they might even try to punish you because they don't want to deal with it. all they care about is their reputation and being the best school. also this place does not rlly have the best cleanliness. anyways datz my review from my own experiences, if u value ur wellbeing this place is not the place for u!!!"

"Ok so this is a nice school. Good teachers nice topics and the food is okay. But there is ONE problem. THEY FORKS HAVE NO TISSUES!!!!!! Like how are we supposed to maintain cleanliness without free napkins? Like get real."

"honestly, i feel like attending this school as a 7th grader is alright. it’s good, but i just don’t wanna be there. the teachers could be overwhelming, especially the math teachers. many things could not go your way, but you might end up liking it. some of the teachers are understanding, and funny, so make the best of it. also, to the people talking about the bullying, they didn’t really lie. just avoid those who look like they’d bother you and you’ll be fine"

"A lot of people are saying that this school is bad. It is not bad. It is good. It has a good curriculum. My best friend goes here and his name is Matthew G. He loves his teachers and has a very fun time with his friends. He excels in math and reading and has very good skills. I would recommend Bay Academy to anybody that wants a great middle school education. I will be sending my children there soon."

"I graduated from this middle school in 2016 and I have to say this is an AMAZING school. Everyone is very nice and chill. Very clean and new classroom, bathroom, and auditorium. Wonderful, supportive teachers that actually care about each and everyone of the students!!! The location it is in is also very convenient because right across there's a bagel shop and there is also a subway station right across. Overall this may be the friendliest and safest school ☺️"
