High School for Climate Justice

"I went to this school and It’s one of those that if you actually try hard you will succeed. I had some of the best teachers in here that were really looking to make sure that their students that were trying will be able to make it in the real world. If your looking for a school that you can just skate by and expect handouts then this isn’t the school for you. The only thing that I wish had been different was the discipline policies. There were a lot of kids that got away with so much or just treated school as time to hang out, creating a difficult environment. I ended up going to college in Florida and let’s just saw LS3 put me WAY ahead"

"Ls3 is although a small high school but it comes with great opportunities. The school offers AP classes on top of the traditional course subjects such as AP Bio and AP Statistics. The school has great arts programs such as choir,art and band all these classes offers advanced classes where students showcase their talent combined with classroom techniques at private shows and competitions. It also has many internship programs and career affiliations like natural museum of American history and Mount Sinai they also offer college credit classes at hunter college. Personally I’ve participated in some programs such as the mount sieni programs and summer internships at research labs and I’m not sure many schools would offer such the teachers are also one of the many enjoyable aspects the school offers. The teachers are not only concerned with the numbers the student present but they get to know each student as an individual and carter to them on the level suited for the student they also serve as adults any student can go and talk to bring it personal or academic."

"What makes this school unique for me is the diversity with in it. The teachers of the school are one of the things that stood out to me the most. The teachers actually care about the students. Teachers are understanding on accepting late work and pushing back due dates and taking time out of their day to help students with numerous problems. The teachers try their best to get to know the students in their classes. Another thing that stood out to me from this school was the internship opportunities. Participating in an internship comes with many benefits. Having records of internships looks good on your resume, and stands out to colleges. In conclusion LSSS is a small school, and has very helpful teachers.There are no fights going on in the school, which makes it easier for the students to focus on their work, not on drama. Great principal! She’s very helpful and very good at taking feedback from the students to improve things in the school."

"This school is garbage, I denied to go this school at first and crossed it off my list of high school transfer choices in my freshman year but they forced me to attend here in my sophomore and junior years as well as a portion of my senior year. A lot of people there just tend to laze around there and do absolutely nothing productive with their lives, and some of the teachers are pathetically disgusting as well. Although some teachers like Ms.Chen and Mr.Miller are actually good teachers, they are far outweighed by the nonsense of some other teachers. This is the only school in which even though I've studied, I've failed some classes, every other school I've been to I've had straight A's but this "school" failed to help me keep up with my grades. It was so bad that I even intentionally failed the regents so I can transfer to some other school, because I hate the idea of graduating from this failure of a "school" building and then I started having straight A's again as soon as I got out of there. Besides the teachers I've mentioned and Ms. Fitch who's awesome and helped me transfer, no other teacher cares and most students there are only there just to waste their lives by getting into fights and acting "ghetto" because they think that's cool for some reason. THIS IS NOT AN ACTUAL SCHOOL, DO NOT COME HERE."

"Everyone on here is just mad because they don't do their work, so their failing. The teachers here are so amazing and really help you. You become friends with your teachers, I even got Christmas presents from a couple. Yes, the students here are terrible (some not all). One can't blame the teachers for the students behaviors, there's just some times where you cant do anything to solve the problem. I really feel for them because some students can really be just down right monstrous and gruesome. There are some minor organization skills in this school. Like students waited for a correct schedule for weeks, then it kept on getting changed!"
