Description & History

The development of Individualized Learning Plans for each student ensures that we are meeting the needs of all learners, that the curriculum is designed around how people learn, and that a student?s engagement is based on his or her passion.

Graduates of our program have been engaged in a motivating secondary-school learning experience and meet high academic expectations relative to the New York City and State performance standards.

Throughout this process they develop an entrepreneurial spirit with regards to their own academic, vocational and civic future.

Our graduates are independent, goal-oriented learners who understand the importance of character and community as they pursue their own missions in life.

With extensive experiences with real work, financial literacy, civic participation, community service, personal achievement and academic excellence our graduates leave with a self-designed mission and two-year plan for their immediate future.

Learning Through Internship (LTI) is the center of the Bronx Guild curriculum.

We have been sending high school students out on Internships at businesses and organizations across the city since opening our doors.

At the worksites, students take on real-world tasks and projects under the supervision of a mentor -- a professional who chooses to share his/her passion, excitement and expertise with a high school student.

Back at school, the students work with their crew leaders building and reinforcing the skills and knowledge needed to complete those projects.

We have found our program to be very successful, placing students in over 300 Internship sites since opening our doors in 2002.
