Research Maria L. Varisco-Rogers Charter School Charter Schools in New York, New York

“i went to this school for two years and graduated from it. just to let you know this is an awesome school that can pay close attention to every kids need because we are such a small school. my best experiences happened in that school. the teachers are great, the academics is wonderful, i cant think of a better school to send your kids and i am one. they really challenge you in that school but you also learn in a fun way and a way that you can understand. that school is learning and having fun at the same time!”

“I have to say that my expierence with this school has been POSITIVE, my son attended McKinley and his grades were not good- I have noticed a big improvement in my sons interest for school since he has been attending Maria L. Varisco and I would like to thank the teachers for that change in my son-”

“I agree with the parent who wrote about the lack of quality leadership at this school. Because of the negative environment my child is no longer enrolled at this school.”

“This school has some great, quality individuals working here, but unfortunately, they're often constrained by much of the leadership. Housed at two locations across town from each other, both facilities are cramped. The school is said to be based on technology, but for some time last year, my son and his classmates did not even have computer class! What could be a great school is failing due to lack of leadership/direction!”

“This school is not an ordinary school or charter school. The lunches that they serve to these kids are not even enough to feed a baby. The academic programs are not that bad they have done so things to educate the children. They have had a health class which was very important for the kids to know. There isn't any other extracurricular activities for these kids. No art, music, or sports to play. There was lots of parental involvement to helpfully make the school better. But there just wasn't enough.This school is not worthly to be open and running. Next year my child will not be a returning student. The only postive thing at that school is one teacher ms.Watson.”
