PS 191 has a lot going for it: enthusiastic teachers; a thoroughly engaging music teacher; partnerships with Studio in a School and Lincoln Center Institute; separate outdoor playgrounds for Pre-K, kindergarten; and older students; and a huge grant from City Councilwoman Gail Brewer to renovate the auditorium . Classes are small, with as few as 15 and never more than 25 children.
