Posted by a parent on 3/10/2013My daughter attends the Astral program at this school, and I'm pleased with her teachers and principal. There's a heavy focus on disicipline and improving test scores so the students may exceed level 4+ standards so they may have a chance at competing with schools with level 6 students. The parent c

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is not a good school anymore. Principal Tention is not a good principal. She does not look out for the safety and well-being of students. She doesn't meet the proper goals of what a principal should be. Children have been physically attacked bullied. She does nothing she doesn't have meetings to mediate the situation. She doesn't even call the parents, it's unacceptable. Some of the teachers are good. The special ed teachers are good but they need more education on dealing with children with special needs. The school needs to be revamped.Other Review1y ago - Ps 115 Daniel Mucatel School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am deeply disappointed with my experience at PS 279. The communication from the school is consistently poor, leaving parents struggling to stay informed about their children's progress and school events. Additionally, the school seems to lack teachers who possess both the experience and patience necessary to effectively engage and educate our students.One of the most concerning issues is the inadequate support for students with disabilities. These students do not receive the assistance they require to thrive academically and socially. This neglect is detrimental not only to the individual students but also affects the overall learning environment.Furthermore, the notion of family engagement at PS 279 feels disingenuous. The school promotes the idea of involving families, but in practice, it often comes off as just a facade, with minimal opportunities for meaningful interaction or involvement.Overall, I believe that significant improvements are needed at PS 279 in order to provide a better educational experience for all students and to foster genuine engagement with families.Safety and learning are ok here, but everything elese they need to do better.I am not even going to wait for the end of the school year to pull my children out.Parent Review1y ago - Be'er Hagolah Institutes (B & G)
