Bronx Alliance Middle School

Bronx Alliance Middle School

We are a small school making a big difference. Yes, we work to ensure every leader is academically, socially, and emotionally successful. Yes, we work to ensure every leader graduates prepared for success in high school, college, and beyond. Yes, we provide all leaders access to rigorous courses, enrichment classes, and Regents exams. Yes, we provide access to myriad before and after school arts, athletics, and STEM activities. Yes, we take leaders on cultural excursions, field trips, and college tours. Yes, we have fun. Yes, we do all of these things and we do them well. However, what makes us unique is our unapologetic focus on developing social justice leaders. We speak and teach openly about oppression and privilege and help leaders develop a critical consciousness and a compelling sense of urgency that drives them to be consistently anti-racist and anti-sexist in their personal and public lives. We want to create a more kind, just, and equitable world and we press hard toward this goal every day. Yes, we are small but by nurturing high expectations, working hard, and protecting big dreams, we continue to make a positive difference in the lives of children and in our community. We are Bronx Alliance.
