I went to this school for 7-8 years! I've been here since Kindergarten. The staff is great! I never had any trouble with them! We got enough homework, free lunch and cool electives like Dance and Art! I'm not at the school anymore, but I can see that it has definitely improved! There is more staff, awesome community events, great classes, and merchandise! I don't know how this school prepares you for college because I left after graduating 8th grade (which is why there are 4 stars) , but I have met great people at this school and come to visit at the community events! Thank you Pharos for an awesome 7-8 years!
I must say Pharos is a school that reaches for success for each scholar. They care about how concepts being taught in class, can apply to their real life situations. Pharos does an amazing job making sure the children blossom. As a parent who had 3 scholars attend Pharos. 2 graduated and doing a wonderful job in college. 1 more scholar to go. Pharos prepare each scholar for college. Pharos is not just a school Pharos is family organized. The best decision I made for my children.
great school, all staff and teachers are well trained and always welcome you with a bright smile including the principal. as a parent i love this school because there are on top of everything. always notify you of upcoming events and change. great school 👍🏻👍🏻
When a teacher choses to indoctrinate his students into hate against the 1st Amendment. That teacher needs to be fired.
I do not care what the students care about what a politician talks about. They have now been given unbelievable power in being able to control what the administration can not do anymore.
Suspend all students from classes for the rest of the school year. Make them write essays on why they are not in charge and are still childish about how they are allowed to get their way.
End of the school year, fail all that walked out and then send them to the toughest schools in the Bronx, where they cannot act like spoiled brats.
My Children have been attending the school for the past five years, the first three years, the school was a dumping ground to get reed of unwanted teachers.
The last two years, the principle and assit principle will talk to you as though you are lower then they are.
The school does not help struggling students, but help those that do not need it, so they can keep them on top and forget about those who do need help.
No matter how much you try as a parent to reach out for help, and/or express your concern for your childs education. it falls on def ears.
Along with the broad members.
They all say its the best interest of the child but yet the child struggles, comes home crying because they are failing their class and as a working single parent cannot afford outside help.
Cant even get help in the school either. So you judge the school as you wish.
You judge it for what you see as a book cover, rather then for what it really is.
I'm not here to tell you not to send your child here, but here to shed a little light on how it functions.
this school is horrible. the staff members don’t care about the students.as a student in pharos i don’t recommend you bringing your kids here. it’ll mess with them mentally like how i’m mentally messed up from this school. they do everything for show.
Today they sent my child home because he didnt have his testing result we had to take a bus back to our house go to the nearest clinic wait 2 hours to take a covid test then wait 15 minutes to get his results they dont even deserve 1 star
INSTRUCTOR WAS FIRED FOR REPORTING SEXUAL HARRASMENT FROM A STUDENT . THE SCHOOL SYSTEM DID NOTHING TO DIFUSSE THE SITUATION . ASKED FOR THE REPORT IN WRITING AND THEN JUST GONNA FIRE HER !!!! SHE EVEN WORE BAGGY CLOTHES...STOPPED WEARING MAKEUP...AND THE STUDENT WOULD NOT STOP SAYING SEXUAL COMMENTS TO HER ! I THINK THE RESULT OF FIRING HER IS WRONG !!
