    My experience at P.S 161 was overall a great experience because the teachers and faculty were able to give me the necessary tools and guidance needed to accelerate and prosper in my education. As a former student, it was necessary to receive the support I did from my teachers because they are the ones who play a key factor in a child's development. What a child learns in their elementary schooling essentially sets them up with the knowledge that they keep with them for the rest of their lives.

    My 2 oldest went there and now my 10 yr old attends.... The teachers are great and they care about the kids... My daughter has an IEP and they make sure she gets the sevices that she needs ..well with me on their back they have no choice lol..
    The school was fun.They took us on trips that I probably would’ve never been too if it wasn’t for them.They only thing is some of the teachers are biased
