Unrelenting Focus on College Readiness: Every student knows that his or her goal is to graduate from college.


More Time on Task: Our school days and years are significantly longer than those of the surrounding district schools.


Character Development: Our schools actively develop character traits through a school culture that reinforces our core values.


Family Engagement: Principals, teachers, tutors and administrators engage in frequent parent outreach to make sure that parents’ voices are heard and incorporated into the school’s decision-making process.
