Very good school, lunch ladies can be a bit rude though. Teachers are welcoming, staff is great, overall from an unbiased perspective I’d give it a strong 4 or a 9/10
Posted by a parent on 12/30/2025Today my kid came running and crying he said the lunch ladies were screaming at me and he said I’m never going back they put me on a nother table and he was crying there I recommended know one should go to this school.
Posted by a parent on 3/11/2025I had a very bad experience with this school. I used to attend this school before, and it was awesome. But now that my child attended that school, I hate it!! The teachers were very rude to my child. One of the teachers would tell her students that if they didn't pay attention that they would be ask
Posted by a parent on 9/6/2023This is a wonderful, well run neighborhood school, where children's wellbeing, safety and quality education are primary pillars. The administrators are hands on, accessible and very responsive to parental concerns. The teachers are caring and engaged. The school has a great on site special education
Posted by a parent on 7/31/2023TERRIBLE. I have never seen such disregard for a child's safety in a school before. I had to contact my local precint to now get involved. The next step of action would be to seek legal representative.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school experience was terrible I am very aware of what a NYC public school standard should be like. Especially for just elementary students the teachers, staff, and administration are not helpful and very often singles out the students.Parent Review5y ago - Ps 51

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePrincipal Koo is a trustworthy and kind leader. I feel safe and secure dropping off my children to school at PS155 because of the school’s good leadership. My kids had been accepted into a Charter school but didn’t want to leave PS 155. They love it and that’s a blessing. All the best to the PS 155 community and thanks Principal Koo!Parent Review3y ago
