Ps 81 Jean Paul Richter

My daughter was new to this school in the middle of a school year and this school made the entire process very smooth. They also made my child feel welcomed and supported. The staff from the teachers aids and other staff are kind and helpful also. I have nothing but good things and experiences to say about this school.

They lie , steal, and cover up the fact that a majority of their teachers are not even qualified to teach

DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT bother sending your child to this school. Any other school would be a much better choice than this. I would not recommend this school at all to any parent. The teachers are rude to kids even parents. I witnessed first hand whenever I did pick up my child. The teachers are also sarcastic and very petty which is sad . Especially to special needs kids. They do not care if you are being bullied or not they will sit there and watch. Also, this school is very short staffed and does not provide reasonable accommodations to special needs children that may harm other kids. They will not even reach out to the child’s parent. Then during this pandemic forget it!!! My child has been without a teacher since summer remote classes and we are in February!!! He is special needs and falling behind. He is very much entitled to an education as much as the rest of these kids!! He wasn’t even given an occupational therapist yet!! Where is the funding going???? Then teachers have the nerve to go on strike wow! I should go on strike shouldn’t I? I’ve reached out to the assistant principal numerous amount of times and I was ignored!!!! Where is my tax dollars going again? The principal is no help either they DO NOT care about your kids. Only welcoming when you are touring the school. Then when my son return back to school, teachers are going to bully him along with kids as to why he doesn’t know any of the work!!! This school has been a huge disappointment especially at a very needy time like this! I am extremely unsatisfied with the lack of commitment I received from this school. Then have the nerve to ask me for medical forms. For what??? Apparently he’s not a student. Horrible school for a special needs child I will say it over and over. No support what so ever and they do not have what is needed to accommodate a child. One child needed a para and they struggled for years to get one what!???? Why not send the child to get services elsewhere? It is all just a paycheck and your tax dollars going to these sorry people. I even tried to switch my child class and was given false hopes only to never hear from the principal again. Where is my tax dollars going to? It is my right as a parent and my child’s right to receive appropriate education from the selected school but apparently this school thinks other wise
