Harlem Renaissance HS is a learning community where adults are committed to supporting students’ potential as they reconnect to education and embark on paths filled with opportunity. Harlem Renaissance’s focus is to make academics relevant through real world experience and offer challenges that provide knowledge, choice, and positive outcomes. Activities are facilitated to expand their career and college opportunities. Youth development and leadership play an important role as students have the opportunity to participate in as their voice is heard and their leadership skills are developed.

Harlem Renaissance High School community shares the passion and vision of successfully addressing the needs of the over-aged, under-credited youth. We aim to reach young people who face personal, educational, and economic challenges which make success in a traditional high school setting difficult. We recognize our students’ potential and challenge ourselves to build a learning community to support their efforts as they reconnect to their educational aspirations. Our school Core Values will address both the academic, emotional and social needs of transfer school students.
