About

Queens Collegiate is a small school committed to a holistic education (including access to a full array of academic, career-centered, and artistic experiences) providing our students with the tools for college and career. Every QC student takes advanced courses (chemistry, physics, algebra 2, computer science), and more than half our students take AP courses and CUNY College Now courses to earn college credits in high school. We believe that every student should have access to advanced courses and program students accordingly. All students receive ongoing college and career counseling beginning in ninth grade. Campus life is vibrant. Queens Collegiate hosts community events throughout the year (dances, intramural events, culture celebrations, family events), and our teachers plan trips for students to learn outside of their classrooms (including college trips). Because we are located on a campus, students have access to approximately 30 PSAL sports teams and multiple extra-curricular opportunities across the campus. We invest in student leadership and school culture to ensure that students' academic and social needs are met.

Academic Highlights: College Now (CUNY LaGuardia) which offers free courses for CUNY credit. *, Technology including 1:1 iPads, laptops and ActivBoards in every classroom, Expanding elective opportunities based on student interest, including computer science, current events, entrepreneurship, and others., Strong arts programs including Theater, Visual Arts, Piano, and Rock Band., Strong academic core: All students take four years of ELA, math, science, and social studies, including algebra 2, chemistry, and physics.
