About
Our school aims to empower a community of diverse advocates. Students will gain the skills and support needed to not only understand the world as it is but also to advocate for the world as it can be. At AUPE, educators work together to focus academic and socio-emotional instruction directly on students. The faculty is dedicated to providing challenging and relevant curriculum and teaching methods that encourage critical conversations and foster curious and responsive learners. As a Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship (CRMYA) school, we prioritize preparing all students for their future careers. Ninth and tenth graders have the opportunity to explore their career interests and develop essential skills. Students can apply for apprenticeships in technology, finance, and business, allowing them to both earn and learn during their high school years. Additionally, as a FutureReadyNYC school, we offer a new career pathway in technology with courses ranging from Coding to Software Engineering. We are part of the Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship (CRMYA) pilot, which helps us support career readiness for all our students. We have courses that help our ninth and tenth graders explore their career interests and develop readiness skills. Our students can apply for apprenticeships in tech, finance, and business, which allows them to earn and learn while in high school.
