About the School
Our students complete two parallel paths of study: conservatory-level pre-professional training in the arts and college-preparatory academics. Our alumni are creative thinkers, confident collaborators, culturally-engaged innovators, and open-minded citizens, and distinguish themselves in virtually every field of endeavor, including the arts and sciences as well as public service. We are one of the largest high schools in New York State and the second-largest high school in Manhattan.
