This seven story school shares space with P.S.59. Every student is taught either architecture or commercial arts (such as cartooning or photography) In one of the most traffic congested areas of the city. Many students complain that the school is outdated and blame the Dep. Of Ed for cutting funding and space and giving it to the kids in P.S.59 (Whose parents are known for working at the nearby U.N.) Applicants must take an exam and present a portfolio to be accepted.
