Bed-Stuy Public 'School Crawl' Gives Peek In Neighborhood's Classrooms

BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, BROOKLYN — It’s going to be much more educational than a pub crawl — eight Bed-Stuy public schools will host a “school crawl” on Saturday to allow the neighborhood’s families to check out local options for their kids’ educations.

The crawl begins at the Brooklyn School District 19 office at 1010 Lafayette Ave. on June 3 at 10 a.m. and runs until 1 p.m.

During that time, families will get a chance to meet the faculty and engage in family-friendly activities at the following schools:
