We are proud of our commitment to diversity both among staff and students, our growing social justice and restorative justice practices while students demonstrate learning through project based learning experiences and internships. Our high graduation rates, college readiness rates, range of course-offerings, high retention rates of students and college acceptance rates make us a competitive choice in south Brooklyn and NYC.
