STAR Academy is a small, public school in the East Village, serving families from all 5 boroughs. We are enrolling students in grades K-5 for the 2022-2023 school year. STAR Academy is an inclusive and diverse community where all learners’ strengths are valued so that they are empowered to think critically about equity and access with the vision of becoming engaged change-makers and advocates for social justice. STAR stands for students taking active roles and we strongly believe that students of all ages can play a meaningful role in their learning, class, school and world! We are committed to culturally responsive and anti-racist curriculum, practices, and ways of being. STAR students have art, music and physical education embedded into to the school day and can participate in a free on-site afterschool program.
