Broome Street Academy is a tuition free
public charter high school that also bears
the unique distinction of being the only
charter school included in the NYC DOE
Community School portfolio. Located in
SoHo, and serving the students of all five
boroughs, BSA is housed in the same building
as, and is fully integrated with, The
Door—a comprehensive youth development
organization celebrating its 50th anniversary
this year. BSA’s unique model, structure, and
strong partnerships are designed to provide
the best possible experience for all students.
BSA caters to students’ needs, whatever they
may be. BSA actively seeks out and admits
students that will benefit from the unique
academic environment it offers. Every single
student is welcomed into our supportive
community and learning environment. With
a staff of four full-time social workers and a
student to teacher ratio of 10:1, students get
the one-on-one individualized support they
need to thrive. BSA also offers extensive
college and career advisement, afterschool
clubs, Advanced Placement courses, a full
athletics program (with championship basketball
and volleyball teams), a wide range
of socioemotional supports, and a National
Honor Society. It is an ambitious, dynamic
community with unbounded potential!
Because BSA is centrally located and is integrated
with The Door, BSA exposes students
to cultural and community opportunities
rarely seen at other schools. BSA maintains
partnerships with CUNY and private universities
for educational partnership and
advancement and offers career programs in
retail, internships that can lead to employment,
and job fairs. Each of The Door’s programs
are available to BSA students, including
no-cost health, vision, and dental care.
Students are also encouraged to complete
community service projects, further integrating
them into their community and expanding
their learning.
At BSA, every student is seen as a whole
person with unique needs and aspirations.
Where a student begins does not determine
what their future will be. Students find the
support services and resources they need at
BSA for their education, and for their lives.
BSA is accepting applications for the 9th
grade lottery through April 1st, and all transfers
are considered on a rolling basis.
