The Secondary School For Journalism

“I can't say enough about this school. The principal runs a tight ship and holds her staff and students accountable - something we don't see every day in the NYC Education system. Ms. Reif knows her students, her door is always open.” -an SSJ parent

- Janaye S. SSJ, Class of 2009 SSJ, Class of 2009 University of Texas at Austin, Class of 2013 University of Texas at Austin, Class of 2013 “I miss the sense of community at SSJ because it's such a tiny school. The great advantage of such a small school is that you get a chance to get close with everyone, students and teachers alike.”

AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination): college preparatory program YMCA After School Program: leadership skills, internship and volunteer opportunities PRY (Project Reach Youth): after school counseling and SAT prep College Now!: high school students take free college classes at NYC College of Technology National Honor Society Full Time College and Career Counselor Advanced Placement Classes

The teachers and staff care about who you are and who you will become. SSJ will not only be your school, but your home away from home.”

- Carolyn M. SSJ, Class of 2009 SSJ, Class of 2009 Swarthmore College, Class of 2013 Swarthmore College, Class of 2013 “The size, staff, and students are what make SSJ amazing. I met genuine and caring people (teachers and students) that I'm still in touch with today. It's a gem in the middle of Park Slope, and I am thankful every day that I had the opportunity to spend four years in a truly wonderful community.”
