Academic & Supportive Programs

Academics

Broome Street Academy prepares all students to graduate prepared for a successful life post high school, including those that may be at or above grade level, those with special needs, English Language Learners, and those with difficult life situations. Broome Street Academy offers many team-taught classes, where two certified teachers offer differentiated instruction based on student needs. Special education staff also provide small-group and one-on-one instruction for students in need. Regents exam preparation is incorporated throughout the school year to support students in preparing for the New York State-wide exams.

Supportive Services

All students have access to BSA’s wealth of supportive services both in-school and in partnership with The Door. Our team of Social Workers is available to support students in need with issues that arise both in and out of school. BSA Social Workers collaborate with external case workers as needed, as well as support students in accessing needed programs at The Door, including counseling groups, health services, and more.

Post Graduation Planning

BSA’s guidance department ensures students are preparing for life post-high school as soon as they start freshman year at BSA. Students have access to career and college exploration programming as underclassmen, while upperclassmen work with the Transition Counselor to create goals and plans for life after graduation. As part of the College Now program, eligible BSA students also have access to college courses in their senior year.
