I've seen her sitting inside while her husband does the planting and weeding. She said yes they volunteer to keep it nice. I told her it is noticeable. I enjoy visiting and watching the small birds at play in the garden. This school is very fortunate to have community that cares for the grounds. They should be acknowledged for their hard work!! Especially the man who I see doing most of the work if not all!!

This review is only for the use of the auditorium for functions (meetings/speaker series) for a non…read moreprofit organization. Not a bad facility-basically what you'd expect from a school hall built 50+ years ago-wood seats, tile floors etc. The staff has been helpful, they have AV capabilities, which is phenomenal (think presentation screen, audio throughout, etc). We don't use a lot of the stage lighting, but they do have it, and their are bathrooms directly outside of the auditorium. Last but not least-it's easy access, as it is right by the entrance to the school.

My daughter attends Marymount and we absolutely love it. Such an amazing school.read more

I left Chapin fully prepared for the academic rigors of college and I still feel a strong connection to the school. I would definitely send my daughter to Chapin; of course, I'd need to have a child and move back to the East Coast to make that happen, but anything's possible, right?

My child was constantly getting removed from classes and we were being told she couldn't sit still in a Montessori which was odd. We kept having constant meetings about him and it just became overwhelming for her and our family. We eventually had to remove her from the school and go into public. The teachers are lovely but are not trained to deal with all types of children which is sad. We also had all services in place for her and with that they still needed help to handle a 1st grader. My best decision was to remove her from a school that kept correcting everything about her.

Caroline Kennedy went here... need I say more? **** In response to CB M.'s obnoxious comment above I'd like to say that the address he used in his review is not for the main school - that is the address to the field house - yes, a Brearley building, but not for the main school. I felt it was important to review with the correct address. Thanks. ****

I was a former employee and it was by far the worst experience of my life. Teachers were…read moreunprofessional, inexperienced, few had credentials and the administration were horrendous. I would never send my children to this school because they will accept any teacher or student. If I were you, I suggest finding a better school to send your children. From what I hear, their enrollment dropped by half and the next headmaster and assistant headmaster are inexperienced and should not be in that position. Avoid at all costs!!!!!

Six years I lived down the street from the school. I had the opportunity to enter for various…read morereasons on many occasions. I found this school to be typical of most Public Schools in NYC. It captured my heart because I considered it my neighborhood school. I remember used book sales in the vestibule. It helps raise funds for school needs. I came to this location to vote during election time. They were gracious and the premises were always clean. Since I moved from the vicinity I heard of some disturbing incidents. That was a couple years ago. I'm not concerned because even prestigious academy's have had incidents not far from here. PS 169 tightened control and security since then. Just remember that trouble can show up anywhere! Unless someone tells me different, I'm giving PS 169 Four Stars. It's going to be forever in a corner of my heart.

The…read morecurriculum was designed with st ignatius elementary (top ranked NY private elementary) in mind as an end goal. Very creative "out of the box" activities for kids, like a Polar Express day in the winter and an egg hunt with the Easter bunny in the spring. Fantastic new director who has motivated the school and brought fresh ideas. For example, there is now a developmental therapist and a child psychologist on call with retake programming for parents (eg how to discipline, sleep training, etc). The art program Is best in class - This year they instituted "night of art" with a local museum curator, wine, and walls of art made by the kids. Fantastic but selective pre school given it is a feeder school for St Ignatius elementary.
