OLYMPUS ACADEMY
OLYMPUS ACADEMY is a Title I public high school that is part of the NEW YORK CITY GEOGRAPHIC DISTRICT #18 school district, located in BROOKLYN, NY with about 194 students offering grade levels from 9th 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 17 teachers, OLYMPUS ACADEMY has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. 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.
OLYMPUS ACADEMY, located at 755 E 100th St in Brooklyn, is a specialized educational institution that functions as a District 75 school. District 75 programs in New York City are uniquely designed to provide highly supportive, structured learning environments for students with significant cognitive, behavioral, or physical challenges who require specialized instruction that cannot be adequately provided in a traditional general education setting.
The school focuses on fostering both academic growth and functional independence for its student body. By utilizing small class sizes and a high staff-to-student ratio, OLYMPUS ACADEMY creates a personalized educational experience tailored to individual needs. The curriculum emphasizes life skills, social-emotional development, and therapeutic support, ensuring that students receive the comprehensive services—such as speech, occupational, or physical therapy—necessary to help them transition toward greater autonomy and success within their community.
