Ps 78

A pesar que es el primer año que mis hijos, estudiante en dicha escuela a Sido de lo mejor, desde la seguridad hasta el principal, todos son muy activos, y siempre estan muy pendientes, mis hijos han avanzado mucho en su aprendizaje ( Lectura, escritura y más)

Having had all three of my children attend P.S. 65, I can share a firsthand perspective on the school, its faculty, and the overall experience over a span of more than ten years. To put it simply, our experience has been overwhelmingly positive.There is a unique quality that comes with a smaller school environment, and much of the credit for this, and for the incredible foundation built over the years, goes to the visionary leadership of Ms. Scramadella (Sophie), the previous principal who founded this school, and Ms. Rodrigues, the founding school counselor. They established a truly "old school" approach, where a stable and highly qualified faculty and support staff genuinely know everything about your child, from their Pre-K days all the way through 5th grade. Ms. Marks and the current leadership took this foundation to the next level and I have seen an amazing growth over the past couple of years in my children academic and social development as well.This personal connection translates into an environment where my kids genuinely loved going to school. We've seen remarkable academic achievements, with some of our children ranking in the top 1% statewide in both Math and ELA on state tests. Beyond academics, every single teacher we encountered demonstrated a profound care for our children's development. Activities, arts, and a rich array of extracurricular programs are seamlessly integrated into daily school life, not just treated as afterthoughts.The school's commitment to communication and community is also exceptional. I've experienced the parent coordinator reaching out just to check in or to offer a warm "Happy New Year." The front office team is so familiar with parents that they often recognize my voice over the phone, eliminating the need to even state my name.We consider ourselves truly fortunate to have discovered and been a part of this amazing hidden gem. We extend our best wishes to Ms. Marks and the entire faculty of P.S. 65 for continued success and many wonderful years ahead!

Very helpful teacher. Great Islamic curriculum. Always feel welcome.

Wonderful teachers who care about students. Families are involved and caring.

I've been in this school for 8 years now, personally my experience with students was horrible. The teachers and staff in general is okay, but unfortunately don't do anything to the racism, abisism and bullying. The favoritism in this school is over the roof however. I have been bullied in this school, with only a few friends (I am POC and mildly disabled) and was treated horrible by fellow peers (girls) in my class and other grades. Sports (Basketball and soccer specifically) in older grades (6-8) have a lot of competition between their team, and there are many bullying cases. This school has a great education however, and would recommend if your child already has friends in the school. I wouldn't recommend to POC and disabled people, because of the racism and abelism between classmates. I am an honor student at this school and I would recommend if your child already has a good education base. This school is very complicated and competitive, but is not socially friendly between peers and even parents.
