About us

We are so eager to do the work of building a school in the community of Schenectady. We believe that educational equity is one of the ways we can solve issues that continue to plague our country, such as systematic racism. We believe that by offering our students many opportunities to critically think about the world, we will expand scholars’ worlds while helping frame for them their role as leaders in the community and globally.We are excited to work with you, get to know you and get your feedback. We know that building a community school means we put the thoughts, ideas, and needs of the community first.  We also recognize the big asks that we have of you. If you are able to volunteer at an event for us,  if you are able to gather parents to talk about the design of the school, if you are able to help us connect to other people and resources, if you want to be apart of our school board or founding team,  we want to hear from you!
