Getting Into NYC Middle & High School 2025: Your Public, Private, Charter & Gifted Options

Applying your child to NYC Middle or High School for 2025?

Join Alina Adams, author of “Getting Into NYC High School” on Thursday, September 26, 2024 at 6 PM for a workshop to discuss all of your options – and how to get them.

Public middle schools are zoned – except when they aren’t. Middle schools no longer look at a student’s grades or test scores – except when they do.

Public high schools include Specialized, Screened, Arts, Ed-Opt, Unscreened, and more. Which school goes on which application? How do you rank to maximize your odds of getting your first choice? What role do lottery numbers play?

How do Hunter High School and charter schools fit in?

What is the process for applying to private schools? Is there financial aid available?

We will cover all of these questions and more. To make sure that everyone gets a chance to speak, space is extremely limited.

This is a Zoom event. A recording will be available for all registered participants upon email request.
