  Unfortunately I have to give a star in order to post my review, but this school deserves no stars! I am very disappointed with my sons experience BEC. During my tour of the school, BEC was presented as a warm loving family orientated school. As I walked through the school, it seemed like a place where my child could grow academically, and socially. I was told about the various clubs and sport and all the extracurricular actives the children can engage in.
  
  On the first day of school the vision was shattered when my son came home to tell me school was the worst and it's prison! Everyday I asked, how was school? His response, HORRIBLE, YOU ARE SENDING ME TO A PRISON! I tried to convince him, it will get better. It's new, you will get use to it, a little discipline never hurt anyone! That was until I walked into the school one day while the kids were entering dentition and heard the teachers yelling at the children, talking to them in a disrespectful manner and with a very harsh tone. My child always complained that the teachers were one way in-front the parents and another way when parents weren't around. As much as I tried, and spoke to each teach individually about my son, and gave some suggestions on how to make his transition into the school a litter easier, as well as trying to convince him on my end, it did not work! His grades started falling behind and it was only the first quarter.
  
  These children are penalized for everything that they do. Now every action has a reaction! There are consequences and repercussions I agree, but in the same breathe these are CHILDREN! 9 and 10 year old CHILDREN! Who so very much still need guidance! Granted BEC would like to prepare them for College, how about preparing them for HS. Teach them some social skills so they can hold a proper intelligent conversation among their peers. How are they suppose to learn to communicate effectively if they aren't allowed to speak during school? During parent teacher night, one teacher asked my son why doesn't he say he's having trouble, my response was "when is he suppose to when every time he raises his hand it's a deduction of some sort?" So please explain when and how are these kids suppose to ask for help or voice their frustrations and or concerns?
  
  I can go on and on, but I will end by saying I'v pulled my son out of BEC and enrolled him back into the NYC public school system where most teachers and dedicated to helping children reach their goals and not dedicated to enforcing militant rules hoping the that the children preform accordingly so their numbers can be above standards and the school can receive state funding and their salaries can be paid.
  
  I would not recommend this school to anyone parent!
