I.S. 237 - Rachel Carson Intermediate School Reviews
Rating 3.35 out of 5 20 reviews
Great teachers who are caring and understanding but due note that some will get on your nerves as some like to exaggerate things a lot. Food here is a gamble as with any other New York school, unless your in a expensive private school it's either gonna be semi edible, going to make you sick, or pretty decent and rarely the latter. Homework here is very little from my experience, unless you are in a honors class. Trips happen once every 25-40 days and are usually movie trips or trips to museums, arcades, bowling alleys or if your a senior, a outdoor BBQ where you can spend a whole 5 hours in the hot sun with your friends, eating actually decent food and chugging lemonade. Believe me when you get to 8th grade here it's worth it. And also if you ever get Ms. Hansen as your ELA teacher, your set for the year. I promise you she will be the best teacher in this school you ever meet. That's all about this school I remember, good luck if your going here!
My experience as a student for three years at I.S. 237 was very good. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for a school in this area. I think that it's a clean school, the people are nice and the classes are good. I really like that the school has a lot of art classes for you to choose and I had a lot of fun in the one that I chose, which was strings class. This school is a great choice to send your children to and it even has a park right across the school.
My experience at IS237 was very excellent. The Sp/Regents classes really helps you prepare for high school. A good portion of teachers there put in a tremendous amount of effort into lesson planning.
