PS Q177 is a safe and orderly school where the leadership is liked and 100 percent of teachers say they would recommend this school to other families, surveys report.
Based on the 2015 Quality Review, it is clear that teachers care about making content relevant to real life situations. In class, subjects such as filling out job applications and knowing what appropriate work attire is are discussed. In addition to crafting a curriculum that teaches skills and content that extend beyond the classroom, the school provides pre-vocational training from school based worksites such as the School Store, the Culinary Institute, and Custodial training.
The school, which serves around 500 1st through 12th grade students, is located in four sites across Queens. The Comprehensive Education Plan makes evident that the different sites serve different types of learners. Q177s main site educates 430 students with developmental disabilities ranging in age from 6-21 years.
Q177 at PS 295 consists of seven classes, five of which are 6:1:1 ratio classes and two classes of which are 12:1:4. These serve multiply handicapped students ranging in age from 5-13 years of age.

The attendance rate for the 2015-2106 school year was 90.6 percent, according to the CEP.
