Amber Charter School

Description

• Amber Charter School was founded in 2000 as the first Latino-led charter school in New York State by the Association of Progressive Dominicans (ACDP), a community based organization. Our school is located in East Harlem and serves over 400 students in grades K to 5. Our classes average 23 students per class. In grades K-2 there is a teacher assistant with the lead teacher. In grades 3-5, there is a part-time tutor in the classroom with the lead teacher. Students participate in a core curriculum in literacy, mathematics, science and social studies. In addition, enrichment is offered in the visual arts, music, physical education and technology.All students receive instruction in Spanish as a second language from kindergarten until they graduate in fifth grade. Special education services include counseling, speech, a special education teacher, and access to occupational and physical therapy off campus. An after school program is offered, as well as a Saturday Academy and February Boot Camp that helps struggling students reach grade level.Amber was successfully re-chartered for its third renewal period in spring 2011 by SUNYs Charter Schools Institute. In the last three years our scores on the NYS ELA and NYS Math exams have out-performed the schools in CSD 4, 5, and 6.
