Preparing for a School at Angel Guardian Home

 

 

There was a meeting tonight at PS 176. Radio Free Brooklyn tweeted about the new school that is going to be build on the property of the former Angel Guardian Home.  (See here)

 

 

 

There is a need for a school in the area because local schools are overcrowded (one woman talked about her daughter having lunch at 9:30 am). The school is going to be for  676 elementary school children. The building is going to be 24k square feet.

Of course dropping off children and parking is of concern to everyone in the area because there are many schools in the area:

 

 

 

 

 

When residents asked why a charter school wasn’t being placed in the area, they were told that “there are no failing schools in District 20.” Initial reports revealed that a charter school was interested in opening there.

 

A building is going be erected where there isn’t currently a building (between 63rd and 64th Street – closer to 13th Avenue)- see pic below

 

 

 

The comment period will be until January 24, 2019 for this particular project. After comments, it will be discussed/approved by City Council and then the Mayor’s office.

I’m glad that RadioFree Bay Ridge is hyperlocal so we get the news fast. 

RadioFree Bay Ridge will be sharing the audio to the meeting here soon.
