I love this school. I transfered here last year and I've had an amazing experience. I have so many friends and the teachers are so amazing. I'm unfortunately moving to Asia(has nothing to do with the school :)) and I feel so prepared thanks to the school.

I liked the teachers and the environment so much and I recommend any student to join this school. Everyone is so friendly and will help you with whatever needs you might have.

I came to Nightingale in freshman year and I've really enjoyed my time here. The athletics here are average but I don't really think that's the school's fault, they do their best with the players they have. There's a comment on here saying that Nightingale doesn't connect us with boys but I don't really think that's their job. If you came here for HS you knew you were coming to a same-sex school, if you want guy friends it's up to you to go make them. The diversity here is bad.

As a parent, I thought the school was outstanding academically. The administration is top notch and the teachers are outstanding. This issue I had with this school was its complete lack of diversity. Busing in a few scholarships from the outer boroughs does not constitute diversity! Nightingale is 9...

As the parent of a girl who has attended Nightingale since kindergarten, I can't really compare it to any other place. Be that as it may, I simply can't imagine many other K-12 institutions in this country that care as much about a girl's whole education, that has equal or superior resources, or tha...
