About

We provide our students with a state-of-the-art facility which includes central AC. We work in collaboration with the New York City Police Department and the Police Athletic League. Our school offers a challenging academic program introducing students to careers in law, law enforcement, and public safety. In addition, through electives, students are also introduced to a wide variety of other careers including careers in social media, social media marketing, and music/rap production. By exposing students to a wide variety of careers, including those in law enforcement, students come to understand how all areas of study are interrelated and how their educational experience supports their career choice.
