This is a wonderful school with a great community - especially at the K level. Our son is in his second year at PS009 and loves the school. In fact the school is the only reason we are still living in NY. My son has made amazing friends and has learned so much not just about academics but also about social responsibility and the importance of kindness. Both his K and 1 teachers have been extraordinary and demonstrate that they sincerely care about the children. Unfortunately Mayor Adams has determined education is not a priority in NYC so our class sizes have become rather large (28 in my son's 1st grade class), but fortunately the teachers are qualified to handle these larger class sizes and the school provide small group instruction at least twice a week for every child.

We are a kindergarten family and absolutely love this school. It has exceeded our expectations from the curriculum, to communication, teachers, and parent involvement.

Glc is a good school! The teachers care about their student! My doughter is in 11th grade and is fond of her teachers. Going thru sat prep , regents is not easy for a 11th grader, but the teachers have been there with her supporting and guiding . It has a long way to go to become a great school but i am sure it will get there.
