The Urban Assembly School for Green Careers

The Urban Assembly School for Green Careers (UAGC) focuses on Environmental Engineering, Horticulture, Energy-efficient Building Design, and Energy Management. We seek students who are highly motivated, active learners. Students are expected to be inquisitive, innovative, and enjoy working in teams to pose and solve problems in all content areas. Through our challenging curricular model, Learning Cultures, students will participate in both Responsibility Groups and Unison Reading in every class to further develop their leadership, cooperative problem-solving, and written and verbal communication skills.
