Iowa to Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. That’s an interesting move. Will you be attending your zoned public HS? I’m sure you know that NYC has school choice. You can apply to public schools elsewhere in the city. As a new entrant, you’d have to contact DOE to see if/how you can do this. I won’t even get into the arcane system here.
In any case, you will have so many great options just among the SUNY and CUNY schools. Be aware that Stony Brook empties out on the weekends. For some reason, it’s always been that way. Students are from nearby areas and go home on weekends. Binghamton, Albany, Buffalo, and Geneseo are also great options.
