P.S. 86

My son will be attending ps 86 this fall and having second thoughts about my choice. How can I be assured that my child will be receiving the best education when the school has a 3 star rating. What is being done to improve the quality of education. Please help.

I have been teaching here for the last ten years. My fellow colleagues are dedicated professionals who care a great deal for the children. They are willing to sacrifice a great deal of time and energy for the benefit of the children.

P.S. 86Q has been my home for 27 years. The children are learning and teachers are very involved in many wonderful activities. But, we could certainly use extra $$$ to supplement these activities, especially in the area of technology. Many of our teachers would do wonderful projects if we had the resources!

Ps 86 is one of the most welcoming and helpful school in the area. I have been lucky to meet most of the teachers and staff. From ms zuvic, the pricipal to the teachers, to the parent coordinator, to the kitchen staff... All are extremely nice and they help you from the minute you come into the building, it becomes a long term relationship when your child attends the school. They are there for you no matter what! this is my favorite school.
