Do you want a school where there is trash on the ground almost all day and where teachers barely do their jobs correctly? A community of people is so unbearable to be around that the thought of coming back brings you dread almost every day. It may sound like I'm exaggerating, but I'm not. This school will offer little to your academic experience and is a waste of time. First, the teachers are incompetent, with a lot of them just straight up using AI to plan their lessons, putting little ot no effort in there is only a handful of teachers that actully do their job well, but that's not enough to warrant me to come back almost half of the things ive leanrd was from myself and any test that ive had i felt unprepared for after a whole year of teaching mind you not only that some teachers don't even know what certain code words in serious situations one teacher didnt knwo what what a cold blue means, imagine if your child passed out and it takes minutes for a frist repoense team fo react becasue a techer dont know what code blue means or even worst hard or soft lock down. The environment there is horrible. Parents, how would you feel if there were paraphernalia regarding illegal substances or adult activities sitting right there on the floor? Pretty horrified, right? well ive seen stuff like that too many times. Kids even take substances in the classroom, and yet the school does nothing about it. This school is not even a school in the first place; it's an old factory transformed into a school. It's half-baked, do not bring your child here if you have any regard for their safety, education, or well-being.

Ps. 287 is an amazing school. My child has been in this school since the age of 3 years old and I can’t express enough how much this school has helped my child. My child is above grade level in all major subjects. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. This school is vey family oriented and that’s what makes it so great. Looking forward to the new school year
