At a Glance

A small, all-boys religious secondary school with a 6:1 student-teacher ratio

Best suited for

Families specifically seeking a small, all-boys religious school with Church of God in Christ affiliation, and who value extremely small class sizes over diversity or broader extracurricular options. Best fit for families whose son thrives in intimate, single-gender settings with strong religious grounding.

What stands out
  • All-boys environment — single-gender education with 130 students across four grades
  • 6:1 student-teacher ratio — extremely small and personal
  • Religious affiliation with Church of God in Christ — integrates faith into daily structure
  • Total enrollment of just 130 means every student is known by name
Things to consider
  • 100% white student body — no racial or ethnic diversity
  • Very specific religious affiliation may not suit all families
  • All-boys environment — no coeducational experience
  • Small size means limited extracurricular offerings compared to larger schools
  • Far Rockaway location may mean long commutes for many families
  • Missing data on tuition, college placement, or academic outcomes — difficult to assess academic strength
IdentityThe School Combines Religious Education Rooted In The Church Of God In Christ Tradition With College-Preparatory Academics. The 6:1 Student-Teacher Ratio Suggests A Highly Personalized Approach Where Boys Receive Significant Individual Attention — A Hallmark Of Many Religiously-Affiliated Single-Gender Schools.

An all-boys private secondary school affiliated with the Church of God in Christ, operating at a very small scale with 130 students total.

CommunityHomogeneous
