It was okay, not the best but not the worst. The administration needs to make the students more of a priority than anything else.

the teachers are really loving and caring for the kids. the principal and assistant principals are so nice and sweet. i absolutely love them. my experience going to 194 was the best. my first two years were complicated because of the language and i got bullied a lot but once i spoke out on what was happening to me the last year was unforgettable mrs. miller helped me so much through everything and my guidance counselor was the best part about going to school. they listen to you and they make you feel special. they're actually there for you. i ended up joining the volleyball team in 8th grade and i found what i truly loved in life. if you get bullied just go to mrs. sanpedro shes really nice and will help you with your situation. overall in friends i had a good experience. im in high school now and i found really good friends in 194. and until this day i still talk to most of them and i go to bayside high school with some. i learned so much with all the 194 teachers and principals.

The atmosphere honestly matters about who you surround yourself with. Bullying is there but there are no big fights or things like that. Nothing drastic has ever really happened except for one time in my whole entire middle school life.

cool school, teachers care about you, they are strict but not mean. teachers USUALLY let you make up homework, well atleast Ms.Oliveri does. drama goes around in the classroom, teachers do nothing about those conflicts, dress code policy is unneccesary, they give you appropriate work, homework isn't...
