Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2009-04-04 “A beautfiul building houses this middle school where the kids are 28-35 to a class and work entirely in groups of 4 or 5, leading to a very do-it-yourself learning environment where unmotivated kids leave the work to others. Not much personal attention is paid to the kids by staff, and there is little parent involvement in the school. There is some bullying and cliquishness.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2008-08-05 “Heyyyy! I don't go to IS89 anymore but I have to say it's an awesome school. I only went to 89 for a year before I had to transfer out but in the one year it was probably one of the best school years I've had. All the teachers and counselors but especially the other students help you transition into the way the school works. I was always a shy person but at 89 they make it easier to get to know each other and I ended up talking to my classmates and making close friends. Not to mention I learned a lot too. I would go on and on about how great 89 is but I won't. Seriously consider going to 89 and go Class of '09!” Posted By: student Quality Score: decline 2008-07-11 “HI!!! I just graduated from IS89 in 2008 and I'm going to miss the teachers and kids SO much. I remember how hard it was to find a good high school to apply to but the teachers and guidance counselors at IS89 made it so much easier. IS89 is very into collaboration and they REALLY like kids who can talk in groups and who are willing to share opinions and ideas. When I started out at 89, I wasn't very outgoing but the teachers and kids made it so easy to just talk. So now, I could go on and on about the great classes that IS89 offers and the amazing books that we get to read but all I'll say is that IS89 is a GREAT school and everyone should serisouly consider it for middle school. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-11-21 “Great and wonderful school. My children and I reccomend I.S. 289 ( Houdson River Middle School) pver any other middle school in New York City.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2006-05-15 “The school is very modern and up to date. This is a relatively new school with a new gym, library, cafeteria, computers, lockers and classrooms. The halls and classrooms are very clean. The teachers are intelligent and caring. The students could use a little help. There is a lot of bullying and aggressive behaviour.”
