Current Resident: Overall, I am very lucky to live in this part of Ithaca, with low crime rates and a school right next door. You can feel safe walking home alone at night here. However, many people here are pretentious, believing they are more elite than others because of their jobs.... Read 3 reviews

Current Resident: Lansing is a rural town, but being located around fifteen minutes away from Ithaca, New York, provides lots of access to restaurants and activities. The close proximity to Cayuga Lake makes Lansing a beautiful town, and all of the people are welcoming. Lansing High School is a blue ribbon school, and there is a local grocery store, library, and mall that ensure easy access to the necessities.... Read 7 reviews

Parent: Overall, we could not be happier with GSM. Our son absolutely loves his school! He is excited to go to school every day. The teachers are compassionate and effective. They often use a multisensory approach and always differentiate so every child is met at his/her level. The dual language program has worked very well for our son, as he is fluent in both German and English. The teachers also create a nurturing learning environment and sense of community. As a multiracial/ethnic family, inclusion is something we value greatly. Our son is extremely happy and confident, with a great sense of belonging in the classroom. GSM maintains small class sizes and rigorous COVID-19 health measures, allowing them to remain fully open for in-person learning since September 2020. Interacting with teachers and children in a real classroom has been invaluable to our son's academic, social and emotional development. We feel incredibly lucky that his learning was never disrupted during the pandemic.... Read 5 reviews

Current Resident: I might be a bit biased since I was born and raised near or in Ithaca, but I think this is the best city on the planet. We have a great music scene, gorgeous scenery, and some of the best restaurants I can remember going to. And the winters aren't nearly as bad as people say! Just dress like you're going on an arctic expedition, and you'll be fine.... Read 155 reviews

Current Resident: I grew up in Dryden, and through Cornell and Ithaca College, I now have friends and connections all over the planet. It's a very homely place to grow up while still being well connected. The work environments are interesting: there are many small and start-up companies due to the colleges, but relatively few large businesses due to those same colleges. It also has a delicate balance between political conservatism and liberalism due to it's college-town reputation surrounded by rural upstate New York.... Read 20 reviews

Current Resident: Trumansburg is a beautiful little town by Cayuga Lake. We are just outside of Ithaca, NY and we are the home of Taughannock Falls, a beautiful glacier-formed waterfall. Our locals are very friendly and we have a caring neighborhood. It's only a 15-minute drive into Ithaca, where the nightlife on the Commons is stunning. There are always plenty of restaurants and boutiques to look at and explore. Trumansburg's Main Street is a fun place to eat and hang out with friends. Our town is small, quaint, and undoubtedly one of the prettiest towns in upstate New York!... Read 9 reviews

Middle School Student: Avenues online has truly been a wonderful experience. The teachers are simply incredible, they try and push you to be the best student possible for every class and project that we do, which has allowed me to progress way faster than I ever thought. The different projects that we do have stretched my thinking in many different ways, and have allowed me to learn about different topics that I have never studied before, allowing me to improve my understanding on a wide variety of subjects. I would suggest this program to anyone, whether you are specialising in an activity outside of school that limits you flexibility for in person classes, or just want to try out a different form of learning, I would recommend Avenues Online to anyone!...
