NEWBURGH PREPARATORY CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL

NEWBURGH PREPARATORY CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public charter high school with about 115 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 9 teachers, NEWBURGH PREPARATORY CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. 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.

NEWBURGH PREPARATORY CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL is a tuition-free public charter school located in Newburgh, New York, specifically designed to serve students who have struggled in traditional high school settings. The school functions as an "over-age and under-credited" institution, providing a second chance for young adults between the ages of 16 and 21 who may have dropped out or fallen behind in their academic progress. By offering a smaller, more personalized educational environment, the school aims to help students recover necessary credits and successfully earn a Regents diploma.

The school’s curriculum is deeply rooted in a personalized approach that emphasizes both academic rigor and social-emotional support. By maintaining smaller class sizes, Newburgh Prep ensures that students receive the individual attention required to overcome barriers to graduation. In addition to core academics, the school focuses on college and career readiness, striving to equip students with the skills, confidence, and post-secondary plans necessary to succeed in their lives after high school.
