Can PS 3 & 41 parents please let me know what the class sizes are and what specialty rooms the school has (or has lost). I keep hearing about overcrowding, but the class sizes don't seem big to me. And both schools have great spaces (like PS3's dance studio). Is it really that crowded?

    • there has been no announcement about what if any cluster rooms 41 will be losing. the incoming k classes will have 25 dcs. but class size is bound to get bigger going forward because they have to fold more k classes into the same number of older grade classsrooms. people complain about the crowding situation, but i think it's those with dcs in older grades with bigger classes and who remember what it was like way back when. my dc's k class doesn't seem overcrowded. there are 22 dcs, a p/t assistant teacher and a p/t student teacher. i don't know how they are going to stretch the resources to cover one more k class, but at the cec meeting john white announced that there would be some concessions by the doe. it was unclear what those would be. hope that helps. gl.
