Diversity

Schools across New York City are participating in an initiative to increase diversity within their student populations. Some schools give admissions priority to applicants who are low-income, English Language Learners (ELLs) or Emerging Multilingual Learners (EMLs), involved in the child welfare system, or living in temporary housing. A complete list of participating schools and their admissions priorities is available below. These schools will continue to make offers based on standard admissions priorities.

Two schools within our district are participating!
Bard High School Early College Queens (24Q299) and Townsend Harris High School (25Q525).
