Brooklyn Amity School

I rate this school average because as long as you are not special needs or need too much help you will survive this school. If you have any type of disability enter at your own risk. I think they are more geared towards learning and intellectual disabilities. If you are on the autism spectrum, I suggest you connect with the school based support team to see if this school is appropriate for you. If not, I suggest you get your child to a neuropsych evaluation to determine where you should go. Otherwise you will spend a lot of time torturing your kid for no reason. I know that you want as parents what is easy for you but unfortunately special education services are farther and it would be best to go farther and make your kids life easier. And if they want to take your ICT services away please speak up because the further your kid goes in school it is going to be difficult for your kid as demands increase.

My Experience ia horrible. The teachers lie and dont teach my child properly. I asked one of my daughter's teachers yes plural considering they can seem to keep one constant teacher are you using the notebooks i sent. She stated yes and when i picked them up they were empty. Then claim they will be using hand writing books but sent them home and have yet to be put to use. They also put my childs health at risk by taking my child outside in 40 below degree weather with just a tee shirt on during a fire drill and act like thats ok. This school proves to be disorganized and non caring for my childs well being. Never had i ever had this problem or seen this in any of my other childrens schools. If i could change my 5 yr old daughter school i would. A matter of fact if i can please tell me how bc she is zoned here.

This review is for Maya Manashirov-pre k teacher. I would give this teacher less when one star if I could. This teacher operated/ operates on bribes. She offered me to take her tutoring service, and since I did not take it, she tried to kick my son out of the school. I am sure I am not the only one like that. I think doe has to investigate her and permanently suspend her teaching license. (It was in 2016-2017 school year)

Dr. Vlantis does not effectively deal with bullying in the school. OORS reports are not generated as they are supposed to be. When I insisted on one for an issue, the "investigation" was conducted with "witnesses" in the same room as the bully as they were writing statements. Any person with common sense can tell you that that is the most ineffective way to conduct an investigation. But, it served the school because then on paper, there was no bullying. No justice at all for the student who is bullied. Students who complain are made to feel like they are lying and over exaggerating.

Not recommended this is not an official yeshiva
