My journey with New Heights Middle School began when my son joined in sixth grade, and it has been a truly transformative experience for him and our family. Over the years, this school has provided a nurturing, engaging, and dynamic environment that has allowed him to grow academically, socially, an
Posted by a parent on 4/28/2025No support whatsoever, principal automatically sides with his staff. Teacher literally lied in a meeting to save his behind. Gave my daughter a 0 because she got into a dispute with a boy who was bullying her . The social studies teacher for 6th & 7th grade is TERRIBLE and very DEFENSIVE

Posted by a student on 3/17/2025I’m in this school and i get bullied non stop. no matter what you do, the teachers do not care if you get bullied. they will say your playing victim and do nothing about it. they would talk about your race for no reason what so ever. i wish i could move schools but i can’t ruin my year this

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child went to this school last year and I was very unsatisfied. The leadership is very poor. Many of the staff members are older mean, rude and harsh when speaking and disciplining the students. There was only one school safety agent in the whole entire school. Also, the school didn't like parents coming to visit their child in the classroom. There was no extracurricular activities in the school such as basketball, art, dance, steelpan or music. The principal was very unwelcoming, unapproachable and unfriendly. I am so happy my child goes to a better school in another district.Parent Review2y ago - PS 221 Toussaint L'Ouverture

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageP.S. 221 is a Hip2B Healthy School. They offer programs to teach children about health living and eating right in addition to their normal educational programs. I attended one of the events for families where there was a chef from a three star restaurant teaching children how to cook healthy. The meal also was also delicious. More over, the principal at this school is very attentive and helpful to the students and their parents.Other Review9y ago - Ps 398 Walter Weaver

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughters attend school here and their staff is very unorganized and when calling the school or asking about your children. They have no clue about anything. I ask them questions about the children they have no answer for me and they have terrible attitudes. I don't understand why they are school staff if they don't even do their part. Today 3/6 I came to pick up my girls from school and they have a doctors appointment today and I go to the main office and they have no clue where they were or why after school program my daughters where in. The after school program is within the same facility. They should know all this information. This concerns their safety, why if there was a emergency. Security guards are on their phones taking personal calls, ignoring my attendance to pick up the girls. Like this is ridiculous and this is not how a school should be ran. Especially if this is a elementary school. These kids are young. This is a ongoing problem and the staff should get retrained or fired. Please address this to the school please.Other Review9y ago - Stars & Knights Day School
