 We all love good stories.  
 Stories that inspire us; stories  
 that  allow  us  to  dream  
 beyond anything we have  
 thought was possible before.  
 This is such a story-- A story  
 of audacity.  The audacity of  
 educators who believe the  
 only  difference  between  any  
 one individual and the next is  
 opportunity.  In this case, it is  
 the opportunity to be exposed  
 to  an  education:  a  discipline  
 and rigor that once was reserved  
 for our nation’s elite.  
 This is a story of how one  
 school with a small, dedicated  
 team has the audacity to say:  
 we can produce those future  
 leaders too; nonetheless in  
 urban neighborhoods with  
 distractions  and  issues  that  
 provides neither the time nor  
 resources to make this dream  
 automatic. 
 “Hard work generates unlimited  
 options,” is not a mere  
 saying of Collegiate Academy  
 for Mathematics and Personal  
 Awareness (CAMPA),  
 but the driving force that  
 propels this East New York,  
 Brooklyn  school  to  greatness. 
  We take students who  
 have  less  to  begin  with  and  
 give them more of everything  
 we believe makes a difference. 
  At CAMPA, we employ  
 discipline, genuine love for  
 children and families, and a  
 rigorous  curriculum coupled  
 with high expectations.  
  
  
 CAMPA  has  already  introduced  
 the high school curricula  
 to  our  middle  school  
 students, while pairing a  
 math-focused academic program  
 with wellness and personal  
 awareness. Students  
 will be able to graduate with a  
 minimum of six Regents credits  
 (Algebra and Geometry,  
 Living Environment, Chemistry, 
  Global History and Geography, 
  United States History  
 and Government). The goal  
 is to prepare students in a holistic  
 manner equipping them  
 with  the  skills  necessary  to  
 thrive in high school, college  
 and beyond. CAMPA upholds  
 a key principle that traditionally  
 unsuccessful and underserved  
 students can learn at  
 high levels and experience academic  
 and personal success.  
 CAMPA Charter School endeavors  
 to expand into a high  
 school for the fall of 2021.
