About the school

We are proud of our school. Teachers, students, and families are dedicated. We practice the concept of social justice, which we translate to mean Equity Access, maximum inclusion for all. This is reflected in how we build our classes, organize all activities, and ensure that every student has access to all the school has to offer. Nearly all of our students take two Regents and our high passing rate reflects high expectations and high achievement for all students. The process starts for many of our students in Pre-K and we welcome new students all along the way to eighth grade graduation! Parents appreciate how our school provides a challenging curriculum within a small learning community that promotes positive behavior. Our collaborative teams work together to set goals, plan for effective instruction, and monitor and assess student performance. The skills and strategies that students gain enable them to attain success and reach their potential. Our skilled staff supports families in many ways. Parents feel that the school creates a physically and emotionally secure environment in which everyone can focus on student learning. A quick visit to the school will reveal the "family feel" most visitors notice when they are here.
