We push our students to work hard and strive to bring the world and NYC alive for students. Our 700 students are on the way to great work and study opportunities post graduation! *PBAT School --> Students write and present papers instead of Regents exams. *HS Students Concentrate in Finance/Business, Foreign Language or Computer Science for their Electives. *Expanded school day and school year model for all students. Over 85% of our students that start with us in 6th grade remain for HS. Over three years we have graduated over 90% of our cohorts of the Classes of 2017, 2018 and 2019! This gives us a lot of time to know our students and families well.

*Children learn best through experiences. *Projects are better than tests. *Everyone can be a teacher of reading and writing in their field. *Deeper investigation is more valuable and "sticky" than coverage of a topic. *Data is a helpful way to guide students to success. *You believe in project based learning. *You believe that structures create opportunities for students to be creative and think deeply. *You can meet deadlines over the course of the year. *You use digital tools to collaborate with students, families and colleagues.
