Early College HIGH School

The Early College High School program provides academic rigor and the prospect for students to save time and money in attaining a college Associate’s Degree. In partnership with Westchester Community College, the Academy blends high school and college courses so that students can compress the time it takes to complete a high school diploma and the first two years of college. Serving both developmental and intellectual needs, the Academy prepares students to become cooperative team members, responsible citizens, effective communicators, proficient problem solvers and independent thinkers and workers.
