My experience at the Institute of Technology at Syracuse Central was rather interesting. Its fairly new facility, therefore it has a lot of great classrooms, computer labs etc. It's a small school so you will be very focused. There is barely time to get caught up in drama because everyone knows everyone. They offer a lot of great programs such computer science, media and communication , culinary arts and many more. The staff is very kind and personable to their students. Teachers have very flexible hours. Most will be available after school everyday or during lunches. I would like the climate of the school to change a bit. It's an academic driven school but having a bit more of inclusion would be great.

I have been here since I was a freshman and everyday I come here I'm reminded on how great of a choice it was for me to apply to this school . The Teachers are amazing and they really care for you. Its like my second home when I come here. When ever I need something there always here to help me and I wouldn't want it any other way. The Students are just the same, yeah there not always great but over time I have gotten to understand them and some even become friends with them. The only thing that I wish we had more of is school activities. We need to come together as a school more. I know we're a small school but that does not mean we can't have as much fun as other schools.
Parent involvement is important. You have to continually check in to make sure that you are on track with there being so many different program at the school, some of the requirements are different. Be proactive.
