I know about insideschools.org. I know about the 3 or 4 good Public Schools in Park Slope. I know about Brooklyn Heights but other than that where are the good public grade schools in Brooklyn? Can someone with knowledge help me cut through the BS and let me know which hoods to narrow my search to?! Thanks!

  1. I hear PS 295 is a great under the radar school. Some of the teachers that live nearby have told me the school has been zooming ahead with great programs and parent involvement.

    I cant speak first hand though.

  2. Mopar, perhaps you know of any grade schools that feature cheese boutiques? Or any cheese boutiques that offer grade schooling? I feel there is a lack of this kind of cross over for our little ones, especially in the Fort Greene/Clinton Hill area.

  3. The Children School a/k/s PS 372 is excellent on Carroll (btwn 3rd & 4th). Admittance by lottery only. It was formally a catholic school, now converted. Extended amount of funding and has so much to offer. Provides busing.

  4. In no particular order…
    PS 8 Brooklyn Heights
    PS 10 Park Slope
    PS 29 Cobble Hill
    PS 58 Carroll Gardens

    (I am a bit biased though, I’m a PS 29 graduate… many, many moons ago…)
