We are a NY Performance Standards Consortium School! This means that you will NOT take four of the required five New York State Regents standardized exams. Instead, you will design and accomplish deep inquiry projects and defend theses ending in Performance-Based Assessment Tasks (PBATs) in four core subject areas. This is real college preparatory work!

Advisory! Our advisory classes meet four times a week and stay together for four years with the same teacher. You will join a small family group that will help you navigate high school and beyond!

Our Office of College Placement! You will work with full-time college and career counselors to explore post-secondary goals and complete college and scholarship applications. You will go on college trips, take part in lock-in events to complete application, and experience March Madness, a month long push to learn about, apply and be accepted to your college of choice!
