PS9 G&T has the top scoring kids so generically a very good peer group and great teachers, kids come from all over D3 so less of a community than 87. 87 is one of the best gened schools in the city has a very strong local community and good teachers. [ Reply | More ]

doesnt' matter if it's dimsum, though dimsum is fun for kids, i think. like little jewels. i like one on eliz on the block south of canal, can't think of name. i think it's called oriental garden, it's got seafood tanks out front. or there's a huge one on that block, escalator on the east side of the street, also can't remember name, but good and palatial. then you can go to the ice cream factory around the corner, and buy little things and sit in columbus park. good fun [ Reply | More ]
