Bad school don’t send you kids here

165 is a school that is motivated to give the best of everything to our students. I've been in the building close to ten years now and based on my experiences with colleagues the staff is full of great teachers who really care about the emotional and educational well-being of each student. We're led by admin who really care. I can't tell you the number of times that admin and staff have cried and cared about the safety and emotional well-being of a child that no one outside the building would have seen unless they were there. 165 is a family and we're always looking to get better.

Teachers are rude, lazy, and they don't teach properly. This school is also very greedy.

This school is awful. There is huge bullying issues and if you’re not loaded with money or an honer roll student your child is an immediate target. If your child is one of these kids that aren’t loaded or top of the class your child will be verbally abused. My kid has been called special needs by the head principal of the school, needs to go to a mental health doctor for asking to get tissues during mincha. Kids in this school bully others so bad I hear story’s that they spit on their face and call them names like horse, autist, and Ed. The teachers are hit or miss some of them are great but 70% of them didn’t even graduate college they take off school so much the substitutes are known as a teacher to them. The problem with the substitutes is they don’t learn with them they either ignore the kids and go on their phone or give the kids a free period and let them play outside. If you want your kid to learn at home or study teachers don’t give out reviews or homework my son hasn’t had homework since 4th grade before Covid. PS: principals will embarrass your kid infront of the whole school and make him feel like a nobody.

Terrible school dont send your kids there

I would really recommend this school! The teachers are great Mrs. Buck, Mrs. Reiman, Mrs. Loccisano, and Mrs. S humor is great and they teach amazingly! The activities and field trips in this school is so fun. Student Council never lets the kids down. The kids in this school is so nice, kind, and respectful. The principle is so funny, kind, and when there is a problem it always gets fixed!
