Principal's Message

Dear Bronx River Families,

Hello, and welcome to the 2024-2025 school year, Bronx River’s 12th year!  I am so incredibly excited to be afforded the honor and privilege of serving the Bronx River High School Community as your principal. 

Twelve years ago I founded Bronx River High School in order to create a school community that affords our students a strong academic experience combined with a supportive and inclusive environment.  I am committed to ensuring that all of our students are provided with a high-quality education in an environment where our students, families, and staff feel welcomed, valued, and respected. I am so proud of what we have accomplished.  Our school is ranked 12th in the Bronx for IMPACT out of 110 high schools (source: NYC School Performance Dashboard).  We are the highest performing school in District 8 (source: NYC School Quality Guide).  Our graduation rate for the last three years was 95%, 100%, and 94%.  

I vow to lead as a partner, an active listener, and most of all, as a strong advocate for children and the dedicated teachers and staff who work passionately in support of their academic and social-emotional growth. At Bronx River, students will always be at the forefront of the decisions we make as a school. 

I firmly believe Bronx River has the best students, families, and staff! I am excited about continuing the great work we've started and working together towards great accomplishments in support of your children. Please reach out to share thoughts, questions, or feedback at any time. I wish everyone a school year filled with health, happiness, and success! 

Sincerely, 

Greg Fucheck, Principal
