Equality Charter School

Equality charter school opened its doors in the fall of 2009 in the north bronx with a college preparatory academic program and a highly structured and supportive school culture. While the school is comprised of students from many backgrounds, it is uniquely designed to close the achievement gap in middle school and prepare students to be successful in college by focusing on the integration of goal setting, critical thinking and problem solving skills. The school's primary purpose is to provide educational services to the six through twelve grade students of community school district 11. Equality charter school was founded in 2009 to serve middle school students in co-op city, a high needs area in the bronx. We currently instruct 234 6-8th grade scholars mostly from bronx community school district 11, but also from manhattan and brooklyn. In august 2014, we began operating classes for students in the ninth grade.
