GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

PS 153 overall a good school. This school has great teacher and are very helpful. Resources for tutoring and after-school programs need to be updated .As for daily physical activities for kids to get energy out such as gym and lunch playtime I feel that needs to be more staff on hand to watch a larger group of children. There was a music program offered but not offer to the entire School. I think with most public schools in Queens you'll find that schools are overstuffed classes sometimes reach 32 children to one teacher this should be reduced or an additional teacher should be needed.

The principal should not be the principal because he does not have enough leadership to guide this school. He makes poor decisions and does not watch what some staff at this school do. He should be replaced by someone who actually cares about school and creating a positive learning environment.
