Academics

SCHOOL PROGRAM
East New York Prep will bring together practice-proven elements of school design to drastically improve student performance and academic achievement in all subjects. East New York Prep will maintain a rigorous curriculum and achieve our mission by:

• Identifying and addressing any existing academic deficiencies: We will provide double periods of literacy and math instruction daily to ensure our students have the academic foundation they need to move forward.


• Extending the length of school days and the academic year: We will require students to attend school for 190 days, from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, providing tutoring and enrichment after school and during the summer.


• Enforcing strict behavioral rules through a clear Code of Conduct: Our students will wear uniforms and participate in daily advisories where they are taught how to maintain our school's culture of respect.


• Creating smaller classrooms with approximately 20 students per class: We will know our students well, and use that knowledge to maximize effective teaching and learning.


• Having parents involved in the educational process: We will help parents become partners in their child's education with training workshops, family newsletters and school covenants.


• Fostering a college-bound community of scholastic over-achievement: We maintain a culture of excellence where students are inspired to 'THINK' (be Tolerant, Hard-working students of Integrity, who make No excuses for acquiring Knowledge).
