Overview Paragraph
All students will graduate equipped with the knowledge, skills, and personal choices to pursue college and/or professional careers in public service. Our graduates serve as public ambassadors propelled with a renewed sense of urgency to take action on a civic calling within their community, city, and nation. Urban Action Acdemy (UAA) is a proud AVID school that extends student success beyond the classroom by offering a variety of college level classes beginning in ninth grade. Students at UAA enjoy and take full advantage of our industry partnerships with the Justice Resource Center (JRC); Momentum Teens, and several colleges, including Brooklyn College, John Jay College, and Medgar Evers College. Students in all grades attend CUNY College Now and Smart Scholars classes in these institutions after school and on weekends. In addition, students in all grades participate in moot court & mock trial via our Law Program associated with the JRC at Fordham University. Our goal is to extend these offerings to 80 to 110 students annually by 2017.

Performance Assessment School
Overview Paragraph
We are a small school that emphasizes creating effective leaders in our communities while providing a challenging academic program. Through hands-on learning in the classroom and throughout NYC’s diverse neighborhoods, our students solve real-world problems. Our students have the unique opportunity to experience a five-day Outward Bound wilderness course and, as they become leaders, bring what they learn back to their families and their communities. Students demonstrate their college readiness through Performance Based Assessments (PBATs) in-depth research projects and written analyses that they defend before a panel. PBATs allow students to pursue knowledge in deep and meaningful ways.
Program Highlights
Crew advisory program of twelve-fifteen students who stay together for four years and work with a staff member to receive guidance, develop leadership, and build community; Twice a year weeklong elective courses that allow students to explore specific areas of interest such as The School to Prison Pipeline, Game Design, The Psychology of Fear, or Landmarks of NYC; Weeklong tenth grade college visits; CUNY College Now (Kingsborough Community College); STEM courses; Full-time college counselor and College Prep courses; Student-Led Conferences twice a year; Presentations of Learning (PoL) each spring where students present exemplary work at Borough Hall.

Classes focus learning on reading, writing, and communicating fluently in English while also providing opportunities to maintain students' native languages. We use real-world learning by giving our students experiences in local healthcare settings before they graduate. Students gain practical skills including CPR and first aid, explore careers through eleventh grade internships at local medical centers, and take early college coursework with our university partners. These hands-on opportunities both provide a context for language acquisition and allow students to use their native language as an asset in their service to the community.

Overview Paragraph
Bard High School Early College Queens (BHSEC Queens) was founded on the belief that many students are ready to do serious college work at age sixteen. Bard College partnered with the New York City Department of Education to create an innovative program that enables high school students to move, in four years, from ninth grade through the first two years of college, earning a high school diploma, up to 60 college credits, and an Associate of Arts (AA) degree upon graduation.
Program Highlights
In their first two years at BHSEC Queens, students receive a solid foundation in mathematics, science, history, English, a foreign language, and the arts. In the final two years, the college program balances core requirements in critical reading and analysis, mathematics, science, language & culture, and the arts, with opportunities for students to pursue their individual interests. We offer a variety of college courses and opportunities for students to engage in independent studies of their own design. Students completing 60 college credits receive the Bard College AA degree. Students may then transfer to colleges and universities with up to two years of college credit.

Overview Paragraph
We are a small, multicultural high school on the campus of LaGuardia Community College. All of our students are new to the country within four years of application. We focus on English language development in all of our content classes and teachers work collaboratively on interdisciplinary teams. Our mission is to prepare English Language Learners for success in college and careers. Students develop their academic and English skills by completing individual and group projects in all classes. Students present portfolios as part of their graduation requirements and are able to stay for a free year of college as part of our Early College Program after they complete their high school graduation requirements within four years. While in the Early College Program, we provide students with academic support classes to ensure their success in college.
