Why Is The Hebrew Language Academy Charter School Open In Harlem?

Harlem Hebrew Language Academy Charter School To Open In 2013 in Harlem

(July 14, 2012, Harlem, New York) Harlem Hebrew Language Academy Charter School was approved for a charter by the New York State Board of Regents on June 19, 2012 and will open in Community School District (CSD) 3, serving the Upper Westside and Harlem communities of Manhattan in the Fall of 2013.

Harlem Charter School Parents PAC (HCSP-PAC) is excited to welcome The Harlem Hebrew Language Academy Charter School to the line-up of outstanding Harlem charter schools operating in Harlem.

HCSP-PAC plans to help promote Harlem Hebrew Language Academy Charter School to Harlem parents with school age children in Harlem.

Harlem Hebrew Language Academy Charter School will serve as an excellent educational opportunity for all of the children of Harlem. I strongly believe Harlem Hebrew opening in Harlem, represents the continued mutually beneficial partnership between African-Americans and members of the Jewish faith that was established decades ago during the civil rights era of the 1960's based on shared values of equal opportunity and social justice, said Thomas Lopez-Pierre, Treasurer of the Board of Directors of the Harlem Charter School Parents PAC (HCSP-PAC).

Harlem Hebrew will be a free public charter school serving 156 students in grades K-1 its first school year (September 2013). Each year, the school will grow by one grade until by the fifth year of its charter it will have 450 students in grades K-5.
