St Clare School

Lisa Esposito is an absolute trashcan for a human being. This woman cares about one thing. Clinging onto her “power” at an elementary school in Staten Island of all places. This trashcan represents all that is wrong in this world when it comes to educating children. They don’t even have AC in the gym, it was over 90 degrees and children were passing out.I hope the principal and the staff that support her ROT.

This school truly upholds outstanding academic values, fostering a rich learning environment for all students. The engagement of the children here is remarkable, showcasing their genuine interest and active participation in their education. Furthermore, the leadership team consistently demonstrates exceptional vision and dedication to the school's success. It is clear that a strong commitment to excellence permeates every aspect of this institution. This school is a wonderful place for young minds to flourish and grow.

There are notable areas of concern regarding the school’s administration and leadership practices that have impacted the overall school culture, teacher morale, and communication.One of the main challenges at P.S. 32 appears to be a lack of consistent and transparent communication from administration. Teachers often feel decisions are made without adequate collaboration or input from staff, which can lead to confusion, inconsistency in expectations, and frustration. This top-down approach has, at times, created a climate where staff feel unheard and undervalued, limiting opportunities for genuine teamwork and shared problem-solving. Leadership that is more collaborative and responsive could strengthen the school community and lead to more cohesive implementation of initiatives.Another concern is the uneven support teachers receive when addressing student behavior or academic challenges. While some administrators are proactive and visible, others appear disengaged or unavailable when issues arise. This inconsistency can make it difficult for teachers to feel supported in maintaining a positive learning environment. A stronger administrative presence within classrooms—focused on partnership and professional growth rather than solely compliance—would help foster trust and improve both teacher and student outcomes. Stay away.

This school has no respect to the parents The administrators who solve and discuss problems with parents are very mean and do not provide any help and do not want to cooperate with parents in solving issues related to students. They only promise to help and do nothing.

We love this school. Would recommend to everybody. Staff is amazing, teachers are amazing. Principal is amazing.

My son is disabled and excelling in this school! I love the caring environment and energy of the teachers and staff. Amazing school. Won’t trade it for the world!
