Summary

PS 182 is an elementary school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 431 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #8, which is ranked 731 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

PS 182 has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a statewide ranking between 1,260 and 2,050 over the past 10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 35.85% to 51.11% in English Language Arts and 40.74% to 49.4% in math. Science proficiency for 5th graders was also low at 32.93%, compared to the district's 29.24% and the state's 45.02%. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $35,400 and a low student-teacher ratio of 12.7, PS 182 struggles to achieve academic success.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as PS 583, PS 107, and Dr. Emmett W. Bassett School, generally perform better than PS 182 on state assessments, even though they also serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Additionally, the Grand Concourse Academy Charter School and Success Academy Charter School - Bronx 4, located in the same area, stand out as high-performing schools with significantly higher proficiency rates and lower per-student spending.

Open Quote This school has great teachers. The wealth of experience and passion to be found heading the classrooms is nothing short of inspiring. However, these amazing teachers are not supported by the administration. You can see this in the downcast eyes and averted glances when you walk down the halls. Adding to this problem is the very real gulf that exists between the administration and the parents. It is something that really detracts from the draw that this school could have. The final part of this recipe for disaster is an ineffectual, unconcerned and unprofessional parent coordinator. I will not go into further detail about her. You must visit the school in order to fully grasp the impact that she has on the overall atmosphere of the building.
It is unfortunate because this school has incredible teachers, concerned and active parents and happens to be the only school in District 8 that houses a Gifted and Talented program.
Contrary to the overall theme of this review it's not all doom and gloom but be prepared to advocate and be an active participant in your child's education if you're considering this school. Close Quote
