Ps 120 Carlos Tapia

I love this school and so does my daughter. They really care about making sure she receives the highest level of education, and become the best possible version of herself.

I've never encountered such a toxic school environment, we ended up leaving the school after many years of enduring such a terrible school. Principal Noyola is a grossly incompetent, manipulative and gaslit parents and students when issues are raised saying that things didn't/weren't happening. IEPs for multiple families we know were not honored. The teachers were verbally abusive to the students by yelling, threatening students with punishments, name calling, withholding recess and activities. The administration destroyed the Japanese Dual Language Program by not supporting the program that was led by such a warm and enthusiastic teacher. At our time there many teachers quit because of how toxic and punitive the admin was to its own staff. They encouraged bullying by creating a toxic and competitive environment among students. Leaving the school, was like leaving an abusive relationship. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE.

Lastimosamente , al final Mr Melvin Martinez. Fue poco professional al resolver un asunto Donde solo tomo una version de la historia. acerca de una situación. Que paso con mi hijo que estudio allí y uno de sus estudiantes actuales , al alzarme la voz faltándome así el respeto , gracias à la mentira de sus secretarias , pero descuide, , la vioekncia así sea verbal. Es el arma de quién no tiene raizon y tenga en cuenta que Dios ve para abajo

Brighter Choice is a fantastic school! We feel lucky to have gotten in!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this school and the incredible support my family has received. As a parent of a child in Special Education, finding a school that truly understands, values, and supports children with diverse needs is everything — and this school does exactly that. I feel heard, respected, and included. The staff is compassionate, patient, and committed to helping every child succeed in their own unique way. My daughter has grown not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well. The progress she has made is a direct reflection of the dedication and care of the educators here.I especially want to recognize Ms. Hynes. She has been nothing short of amazing. She is supportive, approachable, and genuinely listens to my ideas and concerns as a parent. It never feels like my voice is dismissed — instead, it feels like we are working as a true team. She consistently shows that she values parent collaboration and understands that we all share the same goal: helping our children thrive.As a Special Education parent, that level of partnership means everything. Ms. Hynes takes the time to communicate, problem-solve, and ensure my daughter’s needs are being met. Her leadership and compassion make a real difference.I am truly grateful to be part of a school community that prioritizes inclusion, collaboration, and student growth. This school has created an environment where my daughter feels supported, understood, and empowered — and for that, I am deeply thankful.
