About

The mission of Claremont International High School is to build upon the diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds of English Language Learners (ELLs) in New York City to create an academically stimulating and nurturing learning community that prepares students for success in college and beyond. Our students cultivate intellectual curiosity, advance critical-thinking skills, and develop empathy as global citizens through the integration of language and the arts in all classes. Students complete an internship during their junior year and have the opportunity to participate in CUNY College Now courses and National Ed Equity College classes. 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.
