I love P.S.102 and recommend this school for people kindergarten to 5th grade even blind and deaf.

I am a student at this school. I believe that this school is great. The teachers here believe in discipline but at the same time they are so unbelievably nice. Every teacher I've met in this school is so amazing. This is my last month of my last year in P.S.102 and I thought I should express my feelings to this school. I'm so sad that I have to leave all of my friends here, and I have to go to a new middle school, but I know it has to be done. P.S102 is a wonderful school and I recommend it to everyone.-Wesley Chessa Forman Student in P.S.102
