Does anyone have personal experience with this school? My daughter attends a school that has a high school but Im trying to see if this would be an option. She needs good academics but importantly nice girls who are not so brand/make up obsessed. She is not like that by nature and although she gets along well with the girls in her school, I don't like the changes I see in her personality. I want her to be inspired and happy. Would she get that in Bnos Yakov? TY

I went there for 9th grade and I was very unhappy and I switched to another school after that … and was super super happy 10-12
The academics were fine but the school was definitely more into project based learning . I did find the girls more interesting it was a lot of girls from bnos yisroel some top girls and some not so top. Definitely wasn’t such a yeshivish grade . I’ve heard BYA high school now is a very good school and not so yeshivish anymore the more yeshivish families are switching out to 18th ave and mesilos high school and drav Meir . The school was fine nothing amazing I think it tried to be the next manhattan high but they didn’t attract that crowd … but I heard Mrs ungar isn’t really involved anymore so I’m sure things are very different

I heard the social pressure in MHS is insane. Brand names, etc. and since they don't have a uniform it makes it 10x harder.
