I graduated from this school with full support and wonderful memories. Now, after many years, it has changed. Teachers has become fond of labeling children for what they think they are instead of actual evidence support to back their claim. They focus on labeling instead of promoting actual educational growth and aspirations for higher education. None the less, it's an ok school from what it used to be back in my day.

PS 89 is a good school i graduated from this school but the only thing thats sad about this school is the fact that they barely pay attention to their trees around them. Everytime i pass by i would see that as the trees are surrounded by metals i have no idea why the metals are surrounding them if the trees are grown but, as the trees get older they are not allowed to grow be because of the fact that the metals are now inside of the trees. I would put a picture up to show you but it doesnt allow pictures. Trees are part of nature and we should support it and help it out because they are a basic part of life. This is what the school could improve on. "?
