BRONX REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

BRONX REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the NEW YORK CITY GEOGRAPHIC DISTRICT #12 school district, located in BRONX, NY with about 200 students offering grade levels from 10th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 13 teachers, BRONX REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 15:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

BRONX REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL, located at 1010 Rev J A Polite Ave in the Bronx, is a specialized secondary institution that operates as a transfer school within the New York City Department of Education system. Unlike traditional high schools, Bronx Regional is specifically designed to support students who have fallen behind in their credit accumulation or who have disengaged from the conventional school environment. By offering a smaller, more personalized setting, the school focuses on re-engaging students through flexible scheduling and a supportive academic culture tailored to help them overcome barriers to graduation.

The school places a heavy emphasis on credit recovery, social-emotional support, and individualized academic planning. Because the student body consists primarily of over-age and under-credited youth, the faculty and staff work closely with students to create accelerated pathways toward a high school diploma. Bronx Regional serves as a vital resource in the South Bronx, providing a "second chance" environment that prioritizes student agency, restorative practices, and a clear, manageable roadmap for students to transition into post-secondary education or the workforce.
