About
BASE is a CTE high school focusing on computer science and social justice. Computer Science courses such as Python, Robotics and Mobile App Design use the tools of software engineering to focus on real-world problem solving, and internships and other opportunities with industry partners give students experience with cutting-edge technology. Our literacy program supports all students where they are, and the senior capstone projects call on students to demonstrate mastery across the disciplines before they graduate. BASE partners include iMentor, which gives all 11th and 12th graders mentors to support the college/postsecondary application process, and BuildOn, so students regularly do community service work (100 hours are required), with the chance to go on international service trips. BASE graduates are prepared to develop their skills in college, enter the software industry as programmers or website designers, and understand and support the communities they live in.

Seniors do a capstone project where they use skills from across disciplines to address a problem in their community. BASE students participate in citywide hackathons sponsored by groups like Code/Interactive and Forbes, and have had internships at SCENYC, Alvin Ailey, and Gilt.
