We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My school is p.s. 106 in far Rockaway NY. This school is good but it can be better. I like that the teachers are involved to make sure their students learn and don't give up on them. I think the school can improve by having afterschool programs such as homework help or tutoring or a summer programs...
