As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote PS 94 has many problems which is really sad because community and the student population is wonderful.
The leadership has failed this school on many levels. The school environment is not good. There is distrust, disrespect and poor communication between staff, Principal and parents. The school is run in a chaotic manner. The curriculum changes constantly without much thought or communication and in a random fashion. The school is run in an undemocratic and chaotic way. One never knows when "walk throughs" of classrooms by administration will result in the Principal screaming at teachers and students, and / or exploding about the classroom bulletin boards. Every year many teachers leave the school ! The extremely high turn over of teachers is a result of this poorly run and hostile, divisive school climate. Maybe things will get better for PS 94 with some serious changes to the administration. Close Quote

Open Quote I was a student there back in the 1974. I even attended the mini school.Some of the teachers throughout my school years were :kindergarden 107 am I think they were Mrs.Goldsmith and I don't remember the other teacher right now,first grade Mrs. Hirsch class 1-2, 3rd grade class 3-2 room 101 Mr. Oscar Clerk,substitute teacher Mrs. Perminger,1976-77.That year we participated in the Bicentenial Day Parade,the costumes were being made in the basement of the school when back then it was our lunch room. I have wonderful memories of that school. About six years ago I visited the school and I had an overwhelming feeling just going up the stairs.The smell, the colors, the sounds in the hallway was incredible.The lady at the front desk was so kind with me,I think she felt my sorrow,I don't know,I just felt like I was in a twilight zone.It was a feeling I can't even describe.I just wanted to stand there and just breath it all in. Then I saw the little ones and I remembered saying"Oh my God I was that tiny?" I even had a glimpse of the main office.I had to ask if there were any yearbooks from the 70's but I guess not.I hope to visit the school again and relive beautiful memories even though I'll just have to stand there for a very short time.I thank you for the respect shown towards me and my feelings on that visit.I will forever cherish P.S.94 in my heart.Do you have any info on the teachers that worked in that school during the 70,s.I have been searching for some of them through reunion.com and classmates.com and have no luck. Thank you again, respectfully Arlene Montero. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
