An Intimate All-Girls Setting Where Two Students Receive Five Teachers' Full Attention
Families seeking an intensely personalized, all-girls elementary experience in the Bronx who value extreme class size smallness over a traditional school community with peers. This would suit parents who prioritize individual attention above all else and are comfortable with the realities of a very small student body.
- Extremely small scale — only 2 students enrolled
- 5 teachers providing near-individualized attention (0.4:1 student-teacher ratio)
- All-girls environment for pre-K through 5th grade
- Highest possible diversity index (1.0) with equal Black/Hispanic representation
- Nonsectarian, welcoming all families
- Very small enrollment means limited peer interaction for students
- The school is all-girls — not a fit for families seeking coeducation
- Norwood's safety score (8/100) is a significant factor to evaluate in person
- With only 2 students, the school's long-term stability may be a concern
- No information available on tuition or specific academic programs
