We focus on all aspects of NYC private, independent, and religious pre-K-12 schools (approximately 800 schools across NYC's 5 boroughs). The Founder & Publisher is NYC Psychologist, Shamur A. Khen, Ph.D. In 2011, HighBeam Research choose our site as a Top 10 Blog for Educational Research (our fellow honorees included the official blog of the U.S. Dept. of Education and the Chronicle of Higher Education). We are a Top Private School Blog (About.com: part of the New York Times Company), and listed on the New York Times City Room Blogroll, along with many other blogrolls across the country. Dr. Khen was recently quoted in the New York Times article, For Some Parents, Leaving A Private School Is Harder Than Getting In (2012, April 30)
