Middle School consults

Middle school is a big transition—and in Brooklyn, there are a lot of paths to consider. District schools, borough-wide and citywide programs, charter schools, private schools... and each comes with its own choices and admissions process.

Dana can help you make sense of the options and find the schools that feel right for your child and your family.

Dana works with families exploring middle schools across Brooklyn Districts 13, 14, 15, and 17, as well as borough-wide and citywide schools, charter schools, and independent schools. She also helps families considering middle school options in Downtown Manhattan.

How Dana Can Help

Every child approaches middle school with different interests, strengths, and needs. Dana helps you understand the landscape, narrow down your choices, and build a school list that makes sense for your family.

She can guide you through:

  • District middle schools in Brooklyn

  • Borough-wide and citywide public schools

  • Charter schools

  • Independent and private schools

  • Downtown Manhattan middle schools

Tour Buddies

2-Hour Consultation — $900 total ($450 per family)

Have friends going through the process too? Two families whose children attend the same elementary school, live in the same district, and have similar needs can meet with Dana together.

Because there are fewer schools to consider at the middle school level, this can be a great way to navigate the process together.
