Public Hearing, Application of Charter High School for Law and Social Justice

Learning through law, striving for justice


WHAT:           A second public hearing to discuss the application to open the Charter High School for Law and Social Justice in the South Bronx (school district 7, 8, 9 or 12) made to the New York State Education Department.  The proposed school -- a unique partnership of New York Law School, Mount St. Vincent College and  Legal Outreach, a not-for-profit that provides educational opportunities to NYC high school students -- will provide students from traditionally underserved communities with a high-quality education focused on creating pathways to college, graduate school, and careers in the legal profession. Students will be exposed to a rigorous curriculum that uses law and social justice issues to help students develop the crucial skills of critical thinking and analysis, literacy, and effective communication.

WHEN:           Thursday, October 24, 2013 at 7 PM

WHERE:        Southeast Bronx Neighborhood Center, 955 Tinton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
