As a fifth grader in this school, I am really sad to leave. I love the fact that the school does a lot of hands - on learning and teaches us in a lot of fun and creative ways. I am grateful for how help will always be given when we need it. All the teachers here are wonderful and are really experienced. The staff works really hard to provide us with fun and safe learning, as well as tools we need later on in life. There are also lots of safety measures just in case and I love how they are always prepared for anything. I also am thankful for how the teachers are so dedicated to teaching us students. Another thing I appreciate is how the parents work closely with the school to provide us with the best memories - and some of our last ones at PS 166. The school brings in special people to inspire us and has a celebration of the namesake of our school, the famous - Broadway star Richard Rodgers. I am confident that the school has provided everyone with the resources we need to become our best selves. I really appreciate how the teachers never pressure or stress us about anything we do (especially state tests). I really recommend this school to all children who have big dreams no matter the differences.

I attended Center School from 2013-2017, and might I say that it thoroughly shaped me into a headstrong and socially intelligent individual. I know for a fact that every other person in my graduating class would say the same. The experience at this school expands far beyond academia, and you are given a beautiful, fulfilling experience about what it really means to be a good person. Being in such a tightly knit community guarantees that every single student will make very memorable bonds with all sorts of people. While at the same time, we get some of the highest test scores in the state. Although, you only fully realize what incredible place it is once you've left because then, you fully realize how much it has changed you. Thinking back to my first day here, I was extremely introverted, and I didn't know how to raise my head up and look people in the eyes. Now I am on my way to college to major in Public Relations.The teachers at Center are (for the most part) true gems. They are incredibly authentic people who go above and beyond to see kids become wonderful students, and more importantly, quality people. Some of the best teachers I had have now since retired, but I am sure that anyone who goes to Center will find themselves an experience just as meaningful and enriching. Parents, at times you may be left wondering what on earth they are having your kids doing, but believe me, it's for a very good reason.

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.
