Access Bronx Charter School
The Mission of Access Bronx Charter School is to empower our children to achieve their greatest potential both as students and as members of their communities.
To realize our Mission, we are guided by these Core Values/Key Design Elements:
Academic Excellence – Developing Critical Thinkers
We foster academic excellence by cultivating a community of critical thinkers. Rigorous curriculum is designed to challenge scholars intellectually and inspire a lifelong passion for learning. We prioritize the development of analytical skills, encouraging scholars to question assumptions, evaluate evidence, and articulate their ideas clearly and persuasively.
Nurturing the Whole Child
We believe in nurturing the whole child, recognizing that education goes beyond academic achievement. Our holistic approach ensures that every student is supported in their intellectual, emotional, social, and physical development. We are committed to creating a nurturing environment where each child feels valued, understood, and empowered to reach their full potential.
Building Partnerships with Families
We understand that a strong partnership between families and educators is essential for student success. Our commitment to building these partnerships is reinforced through comprehensive wraparound services designed to support the entire family unit. By working closely with families, we ensure that students receive the holistic support they need to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
