Bronx Science is one of the three
magnet math/science schools in the New York City School district. The other two are
Stuyvesant High School and
Brooklyn Tech. Considered one of the best science
High Schools in the country it counts seven
Nobel prize winners alumni, more than any other high school.
Located on 205th St and Paul avenue in the Bronx it is situated in a predominantly African-American neighborhood, which can cause some friction considering that the student population is something like 48% white, 48% asian, and the rest a mix of minorities.
