Overview Paragraph

We provide students with the opportunity to take in advanced courses in medicine, engineering, and humanities. Students who distinguish themselves in their coursework have the opportunity to enroll in free college courses through The City College of New York (CUNY) and Touro Colleges, participate in special programs such as the Gateway Pre-Med Honor Society, and apply for internships. We offer a wide range of extracurricular and athletic activities to broaden and engage our students outside of the classroom. Our after-school activities range from activities such as musical and arts productions to exciting Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) activities, such as the FIRST Robotics Competition.
