Students indoctrination over critical race theory, teachers wear BLM masks while students cannot wear anything with patriot colors, Juneteenth education, nobody cares about welfare of the children, liberal administration!! Administration not following DEO guidelines and curriculum, just pursue liberal agenda theory!!!! Fire administration ASAP or pull kids to a different school!!!!

I attended P.S. 206 in 1934 through 1938. My entire life has benefitted from the superb teachers I had in Kindergarten and in the rapid advance classes in which I was propelled into intensive learning, then going on to J.Arthur Cunningham Junior High and Midwood High. It would be a great treat to tell you more of my experiences and to be in contact with others of my diminishing numbers of fellow students still alive. I am now 86 and still working as a full time child psychiatrist, head of a children's mental health agency doing research on early life treatment techniques.
