Ps 219 Paul Klapper

Muchas gracias por enseñarle a mí hijo

I would recommend the school because the teachers there are nice day respect your culture. And all of the teachers I had were really nice. I had two teachers because I was into a language. Both of them taught me a lot of stuff and I think the school is good, because my scores on the task or really high and not like a 2 or an 1. So if you’re looking for school to help your kid elevate their grades, then I will recommend the school. Thank you all of the teachers and everyone that worked there for helping me for five years.

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.

Both my boys attend this school and so far I have no complaints. The teachers are very engaging, communication is excellent.my boys love their school friends and teachers

This school does use what I consider advanced learning curriculums, however, this schools environment is not that great. A lot of the students here will not make your child feel safe or comfortable/confident and some of teachers are similar. The extracurricular activities/talents are not very organized. The food here is predominantly gross frozen food. I don’t think children (youngest age 5) should be consuming this, neither should the middle schooler considering some kids only option is this nasty food. From what I hear around me, most kids do not like going here and always wish to go to another school instead. From my perspective/opinion, a lot of the staff and teachers don’t communicate well or are unorganized. I’m not trying to bash this school because I go here, so I’m trying to be completely honest, but if had to go back in time, I would NOT go to this school. The smart kids and advanced curriculums don’t make up for the environment…. I don’t recommend

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.
