  • We are a small school, with a supportive and collaborative learning environment, that serves recently arrived immigrant students who are Multilingual Learners.
  • Our mission is to empower students to thrive in a diverse world by helping them learn to collaborate with others and advocate for themselves.  To accomplish this, we immerse students in real life based, interdisciplinary projects in a supportive, personalized atmosphere.  Students are supported in every class to use English and their home languages to discover new ideas, express opinions and synthesize learning.  Our goal is for graduates to identify as global citizens with both rights and responsibilities in the world.
  • Our teachers work in disciplinary & interdisciplinary teams to co-design curriculum so that all students have multiple opportunities to read, write, speak, and listen in English and their home languages.
  • We are a Portfolio school (ELA/Math Regents only).
  • We have Advisory classes that focus on SEL and career development.
