Our Mission

To provide our diverse student population with rigorous academic instruction, intensive music education and a positive learning environment so that every student can thrive academically and socio emotionally.

We believe…

• that all children deserve a high-quality education, with access to academic rigor, music creation, and a holistic approach to developing character.
• that a collaboration with families ensures the greatest success for our learners.

We are looking for staff who are…

• looking to grow and prosper in a collaborative work environment.
• excited about teaching in a school and neighborhood where diversity is central.
  
  

In action, our mission looks like caring deeply about all aspects of our young learners’ potential. We make academics a priority while also ensuring students’ character and personal growth.
