Featured City

     New York is the most populous city in the United States and the center of one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world—the New York metropolitan area.[6] The city is referred to as New York City or the City of New York to distinguish it from the State of New York, of which it is a part. A global power city,[7] New York exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. The home of the United Nations Headquarters,[8] New York is an important center for international diplomacy[9] and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world.

     New York City is home to such notable private universities as Barnard College, Columbia University, Cooper Union, Fordham University, New York University, New York Institute of Technology, Pace University, and Yeshiva University. The public City University of New York system is one of the largest universities in the nation, and includes a number of undergraduate colleges and associate degree community colleges, with options in each borough. The city also has other smaller private colleges and universities, including many religious and special-purpose institutions, such as St. John's University, The Juilliard School, Manhattan College, The College of Mount Saint Vincent, The New School, Pratt Institute, The School of Visual Arts, and Wagner College.

Junior High/Middle School

Junior high or middle school is used to bridge the gap between elementary school and high school. It is separated into departments (ie. History, Math, Science) and the student is introduced to multiple classrooms and teachers. Most schools at this level are grades 7-8. This offers the student a window into how their future education will continue and is a very important developmental period for them.

High School

High school will continue the students education in the same departmental format as introduced in junior high. Usually high school is grades 9-12 and each grade is given a name, as follows.

  • 9th Grade – Freshman Year Starting at 13 to 15 years of age
  • 10th Grade – Sophomore Year Starting at 14 to 16 years of age
  • 11th Grade – Junior Year Starting at 15 to 17 years of age
  • 12th Grade – Senior Year Starting at 16 to 18 years of age

At this level the student is becoming more of an individual and is able to choose elective classes to pursue their own interests. In grades 11 and 12 they are given even more freedom in their class schedule. Also, they will begin the process for applying to universities and colleges, taking standardized tests to show what they have learned in the last 12 years. This is a very important time for the student to choose a path for their future and a goal of study. Their success at this level will determine their future success and ambition to pursue their goals.
