Principals

“Brooklyn Excelsior provides a needed and excellent opportunity for parents to have a choice for their child’s education, as an alternative to the [traditional] public school. B.E.C.S helps to raise the academic performance standard for all children. Our record of student performance surpasses that of other schools and our large waiting list is the result of our staff’s dedication to educational excellence.”
Dr. Thomas DeMarco

Ms. L. Chiesa

“As I begin to write this positive testimonial, many situations flash through my mind. The memory that sticks close to my heart is the competitive nature that teachers have at Brooklyn Excelsior Charter School. I thrive off “friendly and supportive” competition. During my first year at B.E.C.S, I met Lakiesha Johnson. She worked very hard and diligently. I felt as if that was a person that I need to emulate. She no longer works on the 3rd floor, but I still find the need to look for “friendly and supportive” competition in other aspects of teaching.”
Mr. D Thomas
8th Grade Teacher
