  • My daughter has a speech delay and is in Special Education. I have watched her blossom and grow in her 2 years at P.S. 91. As she enters the second grade, the fears and anxiety I once had for her intellectual future are replaced by hope and optimism. My child, who had behavior issues, and spoke almost unintelligibly, will now sit with me and read a book. She completes math problems independently. She has come so far, and it is due in large to the wonderful teachers my daughter has had at P.S. 91.
