(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am 75 years old and graduated from P.S. 186.
I have many wonderful memories about weekly assemblies, music appreciation and good teachers. I remember: K- Mrs. Kimberly & Mrs. Abbey, 3rd-Mrs. Moore, 5th Mrs. Leiter, 6th Mrs. Sokoloff. Mrs. Sokoloff was fantastic.
Mrs. Sokoloff took us on some 40 trips(in conjunction with curriculum) during the school year. All the museums, B'klyn Botanical Gardens, Planetarium. I've now lived in San Diego for 38 years. Delia Sinagra Gagliano
