Urban Assembly School for Wildlife Conservation

Our mission is to engage students in a challenging academic program centered on wildlife conservation, to expose them to the wonders of the natural sciences, and to help them to cultivate their life skills so that they are ready to succeed in college and become independent adults who act respectfully within their communities. We are committed to closing the achievement gap in order to prepare students for a challenging curriculum and an Advanced Regents Diploma. Through the development of habits of mind and heart our students make significant academic gains, are ready for college success, and develop a clear sense of personal purpose to affect positive change in the world.
