What if High School wasn't just about getting through, but about discovering who you are meant to be? Welcome to the Gramercy Arts High School experience. Gramercy Arts offers both an incredible opportunity for your creative child, and then also to get that academic support that they need, and the challenges that they need. So, what makes Gramercy Arts stand out? It starts with a simple, yet powerful belief in every student's potential. The bar is high for all students here, and that's the way our students want it, that's the way our parents want it, and that's the way our teachers like to educate. The academics have been great. She's been challenged. The academics are strong, and anyone who's looking for that would find that here. This school, they challenged her when they saw that she was acing her classes, acing her tests, acing her work. But rigor at Gramercy Arts isn't just about traditional academics; it's about a unique fusion of creativity and intellectual curiosity that flows through every class. We want to make sure that the creativity that pervades through the arts also pervades through our academics and supports our kids to reach higher heights and greater depths of understanding. This philosophy prepares students not just for tests, but for life and the preparation for what comes after high school is a cornerstone of the Gramercy experience starting from Day 1. Starting in ninth grade, our students have Advisory, where it's called College Exploration. We have a dedicated college advisor who also helps support students navigate the four years that they're here, and to come up with specific steps that they are taking towards applying to college in every grade that they're with us. The school offers innovative programs like College Now, giving students a head start on their University education. College Now is a program that CUNY (City University of New York) and the Department of Education collaborate on, and it's a way for high school school students to take college level courses on the college campus while they're still enrolled in high school. Beyond the classroom, Gramercy Arts connects students with real-world opportunities, leveraging its New York City location. We have a wonderful Internship Program that allows our scholars to spend part of their day in firms, where they work alongside professionals and are paid to do so. Being in New York, we leverage the robust financial services, world-class medical research, and renowned cultural organizations. An environment that fosters such growth needs to be built on a foundation of safety, inclusivity, and acceptance; at Gramercy Arts, this is paramount. We're a safe, welcoming school that welcomes scholars from diverse backgrounds. The trademark of a Gramercy kid is one who expects an environment of belonging, and an environment that embraces differences, that celebrates those differences, and that realizes that diversity pushes our thinking. This culture of belonging allows students the freedom to truly be themselves. There's no bullies; people are very willing and able to experiment with the way that they look, and with who they are, and to do that in the company of the other students, and they really do feel supported. The result? Graduates who are not only ready for college and careers in fields from medicine to finance, but who are also confident, well-rounded individuals. When students graduate from Gramercy Arts High School, they come away with lifelong skills. It's ensuring that when they're in their 20s, when they're in their 30s, the core values that we've instilled in them over their four years at Gramercy are driving the organizations that they're a part of. Gramercy Arts High School is more than just a school; it's a launchpad for the future. It's just a joy as a parent to see your kid kind of flourish.
