What school district is Dr. Charles P. Defuccio School part of?
The school gets minimum funding and let's not forget the roaches, there are a few all star teachers but they need a new principal and half the staff are stuck in the 90s and the education shows. They give answers on tests and push kids through. The area is up and coming but ps 39 has NOT EVOLVED. It's a sad low income under-funded neighbor school with no future if Hudson county don't save it. These kids are failing on a grand level and Hudson county is pushing them under the rug!!! Its sad when u watch students leave for other schools in the area because this school right outside is so bad. Someone should do something or none of these kids will graduate here let alone college.
