Ps 134 George F Bristow

My niece kindergarten and first grade teacher were absolutely amazing(hence to why I gave the 5 rating for learning and teaching). Other than that this school need some major changes in it especially when it comes to how the safety and family engagement is. They are handled very poorly

i do not recommend this school. first of all the school aids are really mean, one kid got talked bad about his mom and the teacher did not do nothing at all! another kid was fighting another kid and the poor kid minding his own business had to break up the fight because the school aids werent paying attention and he got hit. only about 4 teachers actually supports u. the rules are too strict because when a kid got up just to wash his apple he nearly got lunch detention.there is barely any safety in the school more than half the students in the entire school fight and curse and fight each other.the kids play basketball too rough,other kids get hurt and school aids dont even realise. the teachers mainly 1st-3rd grade are so rough one kid was sleeping in class and the teacher instead of tapping the kid he bangs on the table just to wake up the kid instead of tapping them.the teachers are clean freaks one kid made a little mess and the teachers are freaking out.sometimes we can have fun but when u drink the slushie or the cotton candy it goes horribly wrong after trying them your stomach goes upset.the school doesnt check the weather,once the kids didnt bring their coats and it was sunny and then suddenly it starts raining and the lazy teachers dont do anything and the kids got wet or sick.the kids even if they have covid they come to school and infects the other kids with the virus. the school is unprofesional and garbage too much innapropiate behavior and too much cursing and fighting.

I was a student here back in 2010, its 2025 now. This school took my phone which was a memorable phone full of pictures of me and my dad, and I no longer have this phone because of this school, who refused to give it back, and the end of the school year they tried giving it back but it wasn't even my phone. It was a fake phone that wasn't even mines at all. Till this day it affects me because it was a valuable item for me and they never gave it back.

I attended PS66 in 1966 before we moved to Syracuse, New York. I remember being afraid to go to school because if you wore the wrong color, you would have to fight. We lived on Longfellow Avenue which was near the school so I knew I could run home before being beat up. Even though it was a long time ago, I had fond memories of growing up in the Bronx.

My daughter is been in this school since pre- k and the experience is being so good that I trying to keep her there, they work with your child, they show discipline and respect but remember parents needs to be involve in the education as well and they constantly speak to you about your child progress. I feel the school is great in all aspect. I strongly recommend this school my son will be starting pre-k soon as well.

I am writing this because I feel like it needs to be said. I enrolled my twins into this school for pre k because I thought it would be a good experience for them. I was so wrong. My children only went there for three days and that was because the first day my son did not adjust well to the new environment and he tried to run and they immediately called me after he was only there for 15 minutes and asked me to pick him up. The next day was a Friday, he was feeling sick so I didn't send him and then the Monday I took him in only for a half hour after I dropped him off I get a call again to pick him because they claimed he didn't want to stay in the class and he pushed a teacher's assistant into a closet. My son was three years old last year in september and maybe 35 pounds, I still can't understand how that small child could push a whole adult into a closet and because I was at work and had to make my way back to pick them up, it took me a a little less than an hour to get down to them and they called and emailed me like every 15 minutes to find how long it was going to take to pick him up. Nevertheless, their email to me was that they felt my son was a danger to the school and he could no longer attend. Of course I had to withdraw my daughter from there as well because at that point I realized that this was not a nice, caring, nurturing environment for my kids. The interesting was because they threw my son out they did refund my fees that I paid three to four months later but refused to refund the fee for my daughter like they didn't really believe that I would leave my daughter there after they threw her brother out. Also they were acting like they was going to keep the school supplies that I gave for my daughter for her class, scuh as the wipes, paper towel, hand sanitizer. I kept hounding them and eventually got them back, not the same ones but whatever they felt like returning.
