Description
January 24th Open House CANCELLED. Designed by Architect Benjamin Driesler and built by developer John R. Corbin in 1907, this bright and beautiful Colonial Revival invites and enchants you with that coveted combination of perfectly preserved original detail and the most tasteful contemporary updates. The generosity of proportions begins with the huge wraparound porch; a glorious, outdoor living area where you can admire the spectacular blooms of your majestic Magnolia tree in the Spring or enjoy late Summer evenings relaxing with family and friends. The sprawling Parlor floor has the traditional living rooms flanking the foyer. One used as a cozy family den, the other with a floor to ceiling, custom Oak built-in library and a decorative wood burning fireplace. The jewel at the landing of the grand center stair is a breathtaking Tiffany style, stained glass panel of Wisteria that sparkles with color when illuminated by the sun. The formal dining room has the original coffered ceilings and swinging door leading through an original Butlers Pantry, into the huge eat in Kitchen. Recently renovated, the designer kitchen finishes include custom Maple cabinetry, black Granite Counter tops and stainless steel appliances. Not only can the kitchen accommodate a table that seats 8 people, but there is door that leads to the convenient, original covered back porch with steps down to a large private garden and your own two car garage. The second floor has 3 bright, generously sized bedrooms and a huge bath as big as a bedroom. The third floor has an additional 3 bedrooms plus an office, and a spectacular, newly renovated bath complete with a large dual shower head, marble shower enclosure with an arched mosaic ceiling, crystal chandeliers and marble floor tiles. All of this on THE MOST beautiful, tree-lined street, convenient to the B and Q Trains to Manhattan and all of the great shopping and restaurants of Newkirk Ave and Cortelyou Road!

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEverything about this school is below average by far. 95% of the teachers give either work thats too easy to the point we don't learn, or teach very poorly. The other 5% of teachers are decent but the work is still not up to par with other schools in course rigor. You may get good scores in class until you take an AP test where your grades don't matter. This school had potential but has completely ruined itself. Some of the teachers promote skipping classes (particularly gym teachers), which really isn't what you need.Some of the rooms have mold growing in the floors and (from my experience) has been there for at least 3 years. I thought this school would have been good but I was so wrong.The only part of the school that is decent is the vast number of clubs (which 80% of them fall on Thursday).If you live over 40 minutes away don't go to school as it starts at 7:15 once youre junior/senior.Student Review1y ago - School Of Science And Technology

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter was here for first and second grade she had Ms. Fontaine and Mrs. Aris. They were amazing teachers. Mr.M was extremely helpful the guidance counselor also the principal and assistant principal was very understanding and really helped. This is a really great school and care about the kids. Only problem we had it had no G&T program so this is why we left. Over all the school made you feel like family. My daughter loved it here, we miss it!Parent Review2y ago - Ps 315

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love PS 315. My son is happy in 1st grade at the school. His teachers strive to make the class engaging and interactive. I'm amazed by how much he is learning this year. He has music, art, dance, gym and even has a weekly class with the Dance Theatre of Harlem. The school community is very welcoming and warm. The PTA is growing and there are many ways to get involved. An amazing, large new playground will be finished in May - with new equipment, a track, basketball and outdoor classroom. The school Administration is really responsive to the parents.Parent Review6y ago - Middle 890
