Bronx Theatre High School

DBN 10X546  •  insideschools.org  •  School Finder  •  2017 School Performance Dashboard
Overview Paragraph

We offer students the opportunity to earn a Regents diploma with an arts endorsement by adopting the model of a theatre company. Our students stage plays, musicals, and their own original works to explore the universal themes of the human experience and acquire skills and knowledge to meet the Learning Standards outlined by the NY State Board of Regents. We utilize project-based learning and engage students as artists-at-work. Our program provides the college and career readiness skills for students to succeed in a post-secondary setting. Teaching artists work with teachers to create an ensemble for students to work together, learn together, and become strong contributors to society.
