Take a look at All Hallows Institute, off of 164th and the Grand Concourse. It is consistantly rated among the top 50 Catholic High Schools in America. Although the majority of the students are poor, there is a lot of financial aid/scholarships available. Last year, the First Lady visited the school.
#6 on the list is supposed to be excellent according to my in the know friend who is a high school teacher.
