The accountability structure of this school is broken or non-existent. Instead of trying to improve, they continually suppress voices of concerns and deflect from real issues. They do some routine superficial things just to cover up. The principal is always hiding and apparently she has delegated everything to the vice principal who is absolutely dysfunctional and a just talking machine. I regret putting my child in this school.

This school has gone down the drain ever since the new principal came aboard. The new principal cannot handle the kids in the school. There’s fights in the lunch room and outside in recess. She doesn’t care about the kids safety. Parents stay woke our kids safety comes first the principal doesn’t care about our kids safety and I’m talking from experience.

Honestly, the school could have a lot more potential if the main focus was on academics. Lateness is stressed too much in the school. Students have to wait until they get a piece of paper (late pass) or they are not allow to get into the school.

The principal (Mr. Cohen) and his staff have made PS 69 a true New Visions School. Its remained a community school, great teachers, staff, parents and more importantly the students

I love this school! The staff is great - the Principal, Vice Principal and Parent Coordinator are all about the kids. My kids love going to school. The atmosphere is inviting, and the parents are involved. Plus it's an A school!!!

I have two children in this school... it is a wonderful school. Had we not been blessed with PS69 my children would probably be in private school. The teachers are great and the overall energy from administration to the classroom is positive and encouraging. Parents are involved in a variety of capacities. My only wish is that it were up to 8th grade! Who knows??
