 Voices of Our Community

  • "Finding a school that felt like home was crucial for our family. I knew the first day of school that we were home. The challenging curriculum pushes them to excel, and the unwavering support during tough times has been truly comforting. The teachers and staff continually encourage our children to reach higher, offering love, compassion, and guidance at every step. This school has become much more than an educational institution to us; it has become and will always be a part of our family."

    - Maritza Stewart (Parent)

  • “I am a parent of two children who attend the school. I am very happy that the school replicated in Staten Island after the Blue Ribbon school in Brooklyn. The student body is diverse and my children are valued. I am happy that my children will receive a wonderful education and have many opportunities as they enter middle school. My children are growing and happy and that is what you want as a parent.”

    - Parent/Guardian (Great Schools Review)

  • "Hellenic Classical Charter School isn’t just a school. It’s a Family. From birth our precious children are a Love we never knew possible. From their First day of School our family felt that precious connection between our children and their excitement to learn, to become the best person they can ever be. Hellenic Classical Charter doesn’t just teach our children they help raise tomorrow’s Leader’s. Our Children experience happiness in learning to become their greatest Selves’ every day at Hellenic Classical Charter School."

    - The Alatsis Family

  • "This is our second year here at HCCS SI. I can not say enough wonderful things about this school. We’re beyond happy with this school, their environment, their curriculum, their priority in social/emotional learning, their daily will to be communicative/informative with the families, etc. I have two children in this school and one being on the spectrum and I can not say enough about the care, nurturing, love she’s gotten. The amount of progress my daughter has made being here, both of my daughters. We love love love HCCS! Only thing is… we wish they went up to high school so we can be with them longer!!"

    - Parent/Guardian (Great Schools Review)

  • "Our child's academics have went up dramatically from a public school. The staff is amazing you can speak to all teachers without a hassle. They address any concern you may have. It's a great feeling knowing your child is taken care of in a safe and healthy environment."

    - Parent/Guardian (Great Schools Review)

  • "As a parent of three children at HCCS, I can confidently say this school has been a true blessing to our family. From the very beginning, we've felt that we were in a community that genuinely cares. The teachers are not only dedicated and inspiring, but they also take the time to truly know each child. What stands out the most to us is that the school is more than just academics—it’s a place to build character, kindness for one another and a love for learning. There’s a sense of family from the moment you step foot in the building and are greeted by the staff. Knowing my children are growing in such a supportive and loving environment brings us so much peace and gratitude. We are so incredibly thankful to be a part of the HCCS family."
