29q116 has a great principal where administration and teachers go far beyond the walls of our learners into the community to work with parents too; because we know it takes a village.

I have twin daughters that attend this school. Im thankful that their teachers are wonderfull and caring. But, This school is the worst i've seen in years. There's no Disiplin and no Respect toward the teachers. Parents please lets work together so that our children won't be labled as Those children when we take our kids out of the district to schools that are far more advanced academically. I'm one of the parent's that are moving my kids to a far better area and great schools.. Good Luck P.S.116 Faculity and Students.

My son has been in this school for 3 months so far and I had more than my share of complaints. There is a totally no existent gym program. May I even mention the total lack of activities for the students. There is a real problem with the lack of organization in the school. Although they do try something has to give in very soon. I will have my son go to another school within the next month. The children also have no respect for teachers and each other. Please lord I pray for todays youth. Parents we need to get together to save our youth.

I had two boys attending this school, and eventually I ended up removing them because the school is zoo to say the least, and the staff doesn't want to take any responsiblity for the existing situations within the school. There's alot of students behaving poorly and instead of focusing on what's causing the behavior, and helping the student, they want to medicate the student.

My son is currently enrolled in this school. My own personal views is that I don't think the school care about it students like it should. My son deserves to be in a school that I think could give him more of the education that he deserves.

I am disappointed at the chaos that goes on in the school. Lunch periods are a disgrace, with children running around everywhere and having food fights. There needs to be some reorganization at the school, from administration to staff.
