This school has the heart! With the teachers and staff who have the strongest backbones and the biggest heart. I have witnessed some of our most challenging years as educators not only in our school community but in this country at large. Yet, we are still standing and thriving amidst this pandemic. Every single person from the principal to the lunch lady, from the teachers to the janitors want to see every single student succeed. The dedication this staff puts in every single day to show up for each student touches my heart on a daily basis. Everyone here is a true hero. The staff aren't just here for the jobs - they care for every student, as if they were their own child. P.S. 246 has really pioneered the importance of Social Emotional learning, especially during the height of the 2020 pandemic - when students, families and staff needed it the most. Everyday this school is looking to learn new ways of providing quality education and guiding resources for students and families to succeed. If you walk through the school doors, our art teacher painted the great words of R.B. Fuller, “There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.” That is how we treat each person that walk through these doors. Everyone has so much unlocked potential, and we are here to stay and nurture the seeds of knowledge and watch everyone grow to their true and highest selves.

My school is located at the Walton Campus. It is the only school that requires uniforms so it helps prevent gang activity within the school. It offers four AP classes also college now classes. There's someone in charge that deals with internships and scholarships. There are volleyball, basketball, baseball, softball and tennis teams for each gender. Something unique is that my school is bilingual and offers opportunities to perfect more than just one language.

I just saw a review from a parent. The same thing happened to me when I was an alumni 6-8th grade. I was always bullied by peers even threatened to get fought. And not to mention the 6th grade math teacher and volleyball coach she is a bully to any kid who has ADHD. I wasn’t diagnosed until 14. But you as an educator should know if a kid has a neurological disorder . Instead she use to humiliate me in front of class mates making me feel belittled. And let’s not also mention that one teacher assistant whose intimate video was leaked and she was having relations in the classrooms with the school uniform on . … one time this one girl tried to fight me following me after school but nobody believed me not even the vice principal . All because the student who was threading to fight me was a star student & athlete. They don’t care about kids getting bullied or hurt . Such an awful school I don’t know how people still enroll their kids here
