German International School New York Reviews
Rating 4.25 out of 5 16 reviews
GISNY works for one type of student, and one type only. German expat families take priority, and this is evidenced in the lack of local families that choose to stay the duration - or perhaps, local families are aware that there are other higher quality options available at a similar price point. There are very few resources to support children with learning or behavioral differences - just one resource teacher for the entire PK-12 school. Furthermore, there is no social-emotional curriculum or support to help the students who lost critical time during the pandemic recoup skills so that they can be productive members of the group and society. Little professional development exists to offer teachers new or progressive approaches to education, and most of them are not open to learning "new tricks" at this point. Many, many students struggle, but they are quietly ushered out the back door.
Bilingualism, internationalism, STEM and private, tailored teaching makes for great outcomes! All 3 of my kids went to this school from the ground up, my oldest daughter graduated in 2020, got a scholarship to study biochemistry at a top university. All 3 are not just perfectly bilingual plus some decent Spanish & French but put me to shame in math and sciences (I went to a regular US high school). This school shines even among top private NYSAIS schools for it's math & sciences. From Kindergarten on they model good behaviors and teach self-discipline, respect, tolerance & critical thinking that set up the kids for long-term success. We were lucky to have this school as an option, it is a differentiator, we can see how our daughter has a competitive edge. Thank you to this school and it's great staff and teachers!
wonderful school that combines the best of German / European and American approach to learning and life. Academics are outstanding and qualify students to study at any university in Europe as well as in US. The science and math education is differentiated with a state of the art laboratory space and ample opportunities to do externships with large multinationals. The teachers work on developing the whole child in a nurturing but firm way. Children are loved AND expected to grow in their discipline to study and interactions with others. The student teacher ratio is ideal. The campus is huge, green and relaxing. It's a wonderful, serene place to spend time. Given the size of the student body, there aren't as many teams and clubs as the large public schools. Many students are active in travel sport teams, conservatory music groups etc. in addition to school extracurriculars
