-studentI am currently an 8th grade student at this school. To be honest there are teachers that push you and never stop pushing you but there are teachers that don't care. But one thing that annoys me is that at lunch most of the time after done eating they let you go to the gym or outside if your table is clean , so most of the time even if the girls table is clean they won't let the girls go upstairs but they let the boys even if their table is dirty. Then if one of the girls ask why they can't go they make up petty excuses why I personally think it's sexist. But in general I love the school and will miss the school, funny teachers , and the pushing teachers.

I.S. 254 is a great school with great extra curricular activities such as animation and photography and the best part is that it is all free. As a student, i feel comfortable in this type of enviornment even though that there may be fights. I feel that I.S. 254 really sticks to its theme of technology and that all teachers only want their students to succeed while having a nice enviornment to learn. Teachers really go out of their way to ensure success. Therefore, i believe that I.S. 254 is a very good school and that students may feel like teachers really push them but it is only for their own good.
