I am currently in this school . It's the best school ever. sure there are fights, but the deans give a punishment to the kid how started it. And their are security cameras and security that Rome the halls to find children how are out of class with out a pass. The teachers are hard on the students but the teachers care, you have to realize your child is not in elementary school they need tough love and that's what the teachers give. Performing arts teachers don't take disrespect they make sure you are ready to perform. If your child isn't reaching their standards accept that and ask the teachers for a syllabus watch your child make facial expressions in the morning while eating breakfast , watching tv, and even do warm ups. Not only do this school offer a perfect cariculm they have super fun trips and if your child goes on trips with their breakout classes (clubs) they get an experience . I have went on 3 trips and they gave me an insight on what I want to become in life.

this school is not good. I feel disgraced that i even wanted to go to this shcool. There mostly fights, nasty things, and smoking involed in this shcool, and it all hidding under the teachers noses.The teachers overeacts on every thing , they punish you for the smallest things ever. The talent classes only finds the best people in the group and uses them for every performance and forget all about the rest of the willings kids in the class that wants to learn and have fun. If your now starting this shcool or got accepted your eitheir gonna come out a smoker, non virgin, beat up, grades below 75 , and disrespected. Just take from me ive been in this school for 3 years and just graduated, and im being very honest. Other people might say good things about this shcool just to follow the crowd but im not one of those people. The sChool needs to improve .

I've had a very pleasant and memorable experience with Meyer Levin. I found the teachers to be very dedicated and the then principal Mr.Raziano was always available.Of course that was years ago but some of those same dedicated teachers are still there. I cannot presently rate the but, i'm entheusiastically looking forward with great expectation as my granddaughter now take her journey through Meyer Levin and hope and pray that she will be as successful if not more than her parents before her.
