About

Gregorio Luperon High School for Science and Mathematics opened in 1994 as the first school in Washington Heights to serve newly arrived immigrant Latino students on 181st Street, and the new building on 165th Street since 2008. GLHS provides the avenue that enables students to explore the fields of science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics through language acquisition. We prepare our students to achieve high standards of scholarship and equip them with the necessary skills to be successful in their college and professional careers. We enforce strong community ties that allow our students to become successful leaders with integrity, solidarity, and excellence.

Gregorio Lupern High School for Science and Mathematics aims to provide a comprehensive education that prioritizes inquiry among our student body of English Language Learners (ELLs). This learning occurs in a Transitional Bilingual, Dual Language and Free-standing ENL Educational setting, which acknowledges and celebrates students' language, culture and prior experiences, while simultaneously teaching them English in preparation for post-secondary education. Twenty-first century skills, SEL and CRSE are embedded into teachers' practices to support students as they prepare for a technologically advanced world that values innovation and collaboration. Our faculty understands the challenges our students face. Therefore, student learning experiences prioritize critical thinking through real-world applications, whether in an Equity Team,4 years of S.T.E.A.M. courses like Orchestra, Robotics,Computer Science and Aviation,a science classroom throughout a project-based learning (PBL) approach, and/or visits to the landmarks of NYC. Our fundamental core beliefs in terms of community are acceptance, trust and mutual respect.With this, our Music program encompasses all because yes we can.
