P.S. K077

Standardized state test scores aren't reported in this dataset, which is common for District 75 schools where state assessments aren't the central measure of progress. What the data does show is an instructional staff that rates its own instruction quality at 98% — well above the district average of roughly 88% — suggesting teachers feel supported in delivering specialized curricula. Parents, in turn, give near-universal marks to the academic program.

This is the school's strongest story. Zero suspensions across the entire student body is remarkable for any school, let alone one serving a high-need population. Parent trust in teachers and the principal both sit at 99%, and parent satisfaction is 98% — all running roughly 7-8 points above district averages. Teachers rate their own collegial trust at 97% and principal trust at 97%, suggesting a genuinely collaborative staff. Teacher-reported safety of 96% matches the district average, and the 389 family survey responses (a 95% response rate) mean these numbers reflect a real cross-section of families, not just the most vocal.

Every single student here has an IEP — that's the defining feature, and it shapes everything else about the school. The student body is notably diverse: 35% Black, 23% Hispanic, 22% Asian, 20% White, with a diversity index of 77%. Despite sitting in Park Slope, where the median household income tops $191,000, the school's 89% economic need index tells you its families reflect Brooklyn's broader economic range rather than the immediate brownstone belt.

Park Slope is one of Brooklyn's wealthiest and most family-oriented neighborhoods, with a median household income around $191,000, a poverty rate under 5%, and over 82% of adults holding a bachelor's degree. Homes here are expensive — the median value is roughly $1.6 million — and about a quarter of households include children. The neighborhood's demographics look very different from the school's, which makes sense: families don't need to live nearby to attend.

Transit access is a real strength here. The Bergen St station (2, 3 trains) is about a 4-minute walk, the 7 Av station (B, Q trains) is about 6 minutes, and Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr (D, N, R trains) is roughly 8 minutes on foot — three lines across two directions within easy reach.
