Our Insights
What’s Special
A mock courtroom and trips to Wall Street
The Downside
Poor attendance, metal detectors
The Bronx School of Law and Finance, which shares the John F. Kennedy Campus with other small schools, has a mock courtroom and field trips to Wall Street to engage students in hands-on lessons in the school’s theme. The school offers Latin and Spanish, according to the high school directory.
Most students enter with poor academic skills. Attendance is poor, and more than half miss more than a month of school, according to Department of Education data. The JFK campus has metal detectors.
Admissions: Educational Option formula designed to admit a range of low and high-performing students. In recent years, the school has had room for everyone who applies. (Saba Sebhatu, web reports and DOE data, October 2018)
