Say hello to P.S. 106, the city’s worst elementary school in Far Rockaway,Queens. The school has no math, reading, or writing books, no gym or art classes, and no substitute teachers, when a teacher is absent. SMH! To read more, click below.
The school is completely unfit for the 234 students in attendance. The facility is a mess, the library is a junk room and the nurses office is not equipped with a sink or even a cot! Because there is “no space” for a kindergarten class in the building, the children sit in a dilapidated trailer on the school premises. The principal, Marcella Sills, rarely shows up for work and if she does, is never on time. 5 months into the new school year, teachers have not received new curriculum or books for their students. P.S. 106 was given $2.9 million to serve the low income neighborhood, receiving extra federal funds because it is a Title 1 school.
SMH!
