Baruch College Campus High School combines challenging academics with a warm, almost cozy atmosphere. The classrooms on the upper floors of the modern Baruch College building are cramped but well-lit and cheerfully decorated with student work. There is a nice rapport between students and the faculty. Teachers offer support and encouragement both to the students and to one another, and a collegial tone prevails. While the school is selective, it seeks out students with a range of abilities and welcomes quirky kids. It has a mix of children of different income levels (nearly half qualify for free lunch) and different ethnic groups.
