About Broome Street Academy

Broome Street Academy is a public high school that opened in the fall of 2011 in the SoHo area of Manhattan, making use of the various cultural and social resources surrounding our school. The Academy is a tuition-free public charter high school devoted to providing its students the necessary skills and support to earn a Regents diploma and go on to achieve success in further studies and employment opportunities. Our educators bring their experiences to Broome Street Academy to support the academic and social achievements of each student.

The Academy is also uniquely able to provide non-academic services. Broome Street Academy is closely partnered with The Door, a youth services organization, to provide a unique model that seamlessly integrates rigorous academics and youth development services all under one roof.
