Currently PS 57 has an unprofessional attitude with disrespectful principal. Today is November 18th 2025 before this principal was a honest principal who does have respect and her responsibility but now very hard to spoke with a principal for any concerns. If she doesn’t leave from this school then
Posted by a parent on 11/18/2025Awful school. My son left after attending only a month.
Posted by a parent on 7/22/2025The teachers will try to keep you away from recess if you do not do your work. All the teachers cuss. There are so many bully's and they do nothing to stop it.
Posted by a student on 4/11/2025Not enough one on one time with students
