Our mission is to provide a quality education through shared responsibility in a safe supportive environment for all students to meet the challenges of a global society. We are “Committed to Excellence”, and we work hard to make the site a primary source for timely information for all users, and a main gateway for improved communication between parents, teachers, students and other members of our community.

At the Preparatory Academy for Writers, we are focused on helping our students to both set and exceed high academic, social, and emotional expectations while providing an environment that promotes cultural awareness and community excellence. 

It is our expectation that all middle school students take high school level courses and our high school students take college-level coursework. It is our goal that every child graduates from Writers prepared for the pursuit of higher education.

Students are challenged in every class to apply their knowledge of content as they hone their foundational skills in reading, writing, and discussion. Simultaneously, our instructional model develops and nurtures well-rounded students. This model is student-centered, collaborative, and encourages students to think critically while developing leadership skills in school and the community. We seek to prepare students for life’s opportunities, responsibilities, and challenges, so that they may continue to flourish long after they’ve moved on.   

We believe in the collaborative approach to education. We all have unique strengths and points of view, and together we are greater than the sum of our parts. By working together, our dedicated teachers, staff, and community raise the performance level of each individual by supporting every child both emotionally and educationally.

Excellence is a process, not a destination. We are always innovating, and improving ourselves as we strive to be the best school in New York City.

Best,

Principal Charles Anderson
