My son has been in this school for four years. For the first 2 years it proved to be an ok school. Nothing special as far as educating the children and the staff seem stretch to it's limit. This last year so far has prove very stressful. My son actually was told he was suspended for having chinese food but the crazy things was that the teacher who suspended him had the audacity to put his hands in his food and ate it. I was upset beyond belief. I was educated through to NYC school system and have never heard of such disrespecting, humiliating and digusting thing ever happening in my life. I spoke to the prinicipal and will let you what comes out of this. Also, I have contacted the NYC Board of Education. This school will not be around for long if they continuously ignore and employ the bottom of the barrel as teachers!

I thought this school would have been a positive experience for my daughter, we were so happy when she got accepted. It looks like we will have to transfer out. We are really so sad that we may have no other option.

This school needs a lot of improvement. I thought since we have a new princial it would get better but believe it or not its worse.

This school needs to be fixed. A lot of my classmates and schoolmates don't care about their future. Most teachers really care about us but it is the attitude of my schoolmates that turn them off.

Students At SLS(OH Yes) feel like they can depend on and trust the Teacher and other staff in the building. It gives them a comfortable vibe and feeling.
