I really enjoy HCZ. I think it's a great place for poc to fit in and be around people of their culture and other cultures. I do think that they have a minor discipline problem but overall a nice school.

I have been in the Harlem Children Zone since i was 4 years old, i'm still attending and i'm in 11th going on to 12th grade. Harlem children zone promise academy has helped me a lot. The school gives the students a lot of resources to help them which i really good. When a child is in need they are quick to help them and don't hesitate. They also having really good academic help when it come to kids who don't understand, the teachers are really generous with giving away there time to help.

The school is exceptionally safe, they provide their own school safety staff, which escorts students to the pub...
