About Our School

Our mission is to provide a culturally relevant context from which to develop 21st century skills. The successes and struggles of our ancestors will provide a source of inspiration, pride, self identity, and empowerment for their future academic, political and social achievement. We build culturally engaged students who go into the world to lead, and come back to empower the people.

Unique Fact

Our Young Men’s Academy develops the academic and social aspects of life for boys in grades 6-8.
