(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - the school could be so much better they dont offer so much activies and some of the.comchers are not so good

(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - P.S. 24 has very good teachers and the Paz program is great. The only thing I don't like about the school is that they don't give certificates to students that do well or try very hard. They should give certificates because the children get happy and that is how they will contiue to try to do better. Also the Paz Program should give certificates that would make the students go and enjoy the after school program.
