Open Quote Ima former student at ps 111x.I graduated in 2013, this is one of the best schools for your child to attend. This school helped me get into apron ram called FEP, which got me into boarding school. I attended that program from the 5th grade to my graduation of the program this year;graduating 8th grade. I love this school with all my heart, yet it has changed I still love it. Many of my favorites have left such as mr graffi, but I know I'll see him again. Ps 111x, keep going strong for me. It's Michelllee graduated 2013. Close Quote
