AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER SCHOOL

AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER SCHOOL is a Title I public charter middle school that is part of the AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER SCHOOL school district, located in BRONX, NY with about 342 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 9th 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 28 teachers, AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER 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.

The AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER SCHOOL, located in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the Bronx, is a public charter school serving students in grades 6 through 12. Founded on the mission of providing a rigorous, dual-language academic environment, the school is specifically designed to support English Language Learners (ELLs) and immigrant families. By offering instruction in both English and Spanish, the school aims to ensure that students maintain their cultural heritage while mastering the academic skills necessary to succeed in higher education and the professional workforce.

Beyond its bilingual curriculum, the school emphasizes a culture of community, leadership, and "the American dream." It employs a college-preparatory model that focuses on character development, high academic standards, and personal advocacy. By fostering a close-knit environment, the AMERICAN DREAM CHARTER SCHOOL strives to bridge the opportunity gap for its students, preparing them to be bilingual, biliterate, and bicultural global citizens who are equipped to navigate both local and international academic landscapes.
