Update: We had the wrong photo up before. It’s actually this much bigger building closer to Flushing, not the old rectory. GMAP
Heather, the faculty and (some) parents aren’t looking for we all to improve what they consider to be their local public school. Some of these schools are mired in culture wars and other local schools are so backwards, there is no hope.
And not to paint much of a stereotype, but looking at that list, I can smell the patchouli from here. Not that that is a bad thing, entirely.
Yes, wasder, but wouldn’t it be nice if we all just worked to improve the public schools that might not be of our choice?
Okay, soapboxing aside, that’s four non-parochial privates in Fort Greene/Clinton Hill now, correct?

Yeah, that looks a bit more school-like…
kirsap – yeah? Well, that destroys my dreams.
The building in the picture is not the building that will house the school – the school is going to be in the building just to the left in this picture, not the old rectory. The school building is a much larger building that was previously used as a school (and yes, has 11 classrooms, a huge auditorium and stage, playground etc.).
Nice. This is a very cool little school that I hope grows into a really strong local option for those of us whose kids may not get into the public school of our choice.
Awesome – i know nothing about this school, but that is a PERFECT building for a school. They should put up a little wooden roof thing over the front stairs housing a school bell.
