9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school should be shut down. Everyday I hear stories of bullying and instead of helping the victim, they basically say to suck it up. Biases from authorities, frequent fights, and an environment where students dread coming to everyday. This is not how a school should be run. On top of being incredibly irresponsible, they are well aware of all their issues. During student evaluations, instead of allowing the students to say their true feelings and problems with the establishment, they told the students to lie. Why? Because they know if anyone else found out about these horrific conditions they're forcing the kids into, they'd be shut down immediately. If you love your children and don't want them to grow up insecure, confused, not to speak up, don't send them here.Parent Review1y ago28 Reviews - Ps 107 John W Kimball

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have two kids in the school this year and we absolutely adore it. It is not our zoned school and I am so glad we chose 124. It is a small school, which makes it feel like family. All the staff know my kids’ names and how to best engage them in learning. There is strong social-emotional support including free counseling through the CBO partner, Counseling in Schools. There is also low-cost extended care 3K-4K and free after school for K-5 through a partnership with YMCA. My children feel both challenged academically and safe in the school. There are many enrichment programs available as well including a full time art and music teacher as well dedicated science, social studies, and theater teachers; and external programs such as dance, improv, swimming, coding and Lego robotics, among others. Over the last two years, the school has shifted to incorporate more project- and play-based learning, recognizing that these are children and learning can take many forms, including how you interact with peers to strategize and solve math problems or read & write a story together.Of course every school has challenges, but it’s important to note that leadership is open to feedback and willing to work with individuals and families to best support them. The parent community is highly engaged, prioritizing family events over high priced galas and auctions. We love the diversity of the school — cultural, language, socioeconomic — as it reflects the broader NYC and global community. This is not something that can be said for other neighborhood schools. Highly encourage folks to check out the website (ps124brooklyn.org) or stop by for a tour.Parent Review7mo ago22 Reviews - Ps 321 William Penn

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m a teacher and parent with 2 children here and I can’t recommend 321 enough. Administration is extremely supportive, thoughtful and organized. Teachers truly support one another and collaborate, and parent engagement is wonderful. Thoughtful curriculum engages students in all areas in a calm supportive environment. My kids love going to school each day. I cannot imagine a better, more well-rounded education. Top notch.Parent Review1y ago24 Reviews - Berkeley Carroll Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur family has had a wonderful experience at SSCA. We've had one child go through the entire elementary and middle school, and another one is currently in the middle school having been there since pre-K. They have grown into strong students and critical thinkers, and my high schooler is now thriving at an academically rigorous high school. SSCA is a warm school with a culture of kindness, genuinely caring teachers and very responsive administrators. And it has a surprising number of extra curricular activities for such a small school (a school chorus, a full school band, robotics team, debate team, track team, etc.) Our family has made life long friends and found a second home at Saint Saviour Catholic Academy.Parent Review6mo ago29 Reviews - Al-Madinah School
