About the school

At MS 915, we celebrate our diversity and provide students with a voice. This can be seen through our student government body. Our students work collaboratively to solve real life problems. The school utilizes Restorative Justice practices to resolve any behavior concerns. All grades receive visual arts class. 7th and 8th graders receive Spanish instruction several times a week. All students are given advisory periods where they can monitor their academic progress and receive guidance from their advisors. During these periods, advisors also support any social-emotional concerns for students. Twice a year, students engage in an explorations unit where they conduct inquiry based research around a topic of interest. For example, the 6th graders have researched, "What is courage?" Students engage in workshops around the topic, take field trips, and experience guest speakers who are professional experts in the fields of study. Culminating group projects are completed and presented to parents during our Explorations Expo. All students participate in our school's science fair, which is supported through our affiliation with Urban Advantage. All 8th graders have the opportunity to take the Living Environment and Algebra regents courses. Students from low-income households and students in temporary housing have an admissions priority for 57% of seats at this school.
