About

Aspirations Diploma Plus High School, a transfer high school located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, is designed to support students who need a small learning environment, have fallen behind in credits, have previously dropped out of school and have the desire to graduate. We are a student-centered learning environment where our staff demonstrates the heart and soul to ensure our students receive the socio-emotional, physical, mental, and academic supports to become positive life-long learners in society. Our goal as a school is not only to ensure our students earn their diploma but are equipped to take on the challenge of moving onto college, the military, and the workforce. We instill in our students the desire to dream beyond what their eyes can see around them. Our school motto D.R.E.A.M. (Driven to Reach Every Academic Milestone) embodies our mission for students to graduate with the necessary skills to become college and career ready. We believe every student is a dreamer who possesses hidden potentials and talents to carry them to the next level in their lives. We offer a substantial amount of after school programs, clubs and opportunities for our students to become successful.
