We had such high hopes for our gifted son's education at this school. The truth is that this school cares more about it's statistics than the individual child. The program is rigid and traditional and focuses on academic 'acceleration' above creative problem solving, critical thinking or social development. They make claims to 'critical thinking', '21st century learning' and 'global citizenship' but the truth is that your 'bright' child is simply being pushed very hard to achieve the schools' statistical goal of over 50% of graduating students in the IB Diploma Program. Critical thinkers and global citizens consistently question the world around them, including the standards of the the culture they live in. This is not encouraged at City Honors.
Wonderful teachers and students and a great learning environment. We're very fortunate to have such a great public school in Buffalo.
