School Description
The Big Apple Academy is a coeducational independent school for students enrolled in Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12. The Academy occupies two modern facilities located in the Gravesend area of Brooklyn, NY.
The Big Apple Academy strives to create an informal learning environment where students develop their character, mind and body. The greatest asset of our private school is the close-knit relationships between faculty and students. It is our firm belief that from this relationship students sharpen their most essential skill sets: thinking critically and analyzing, exploring and practicing through a broad array of human thoughts and accomplishments extending to the humanities, mathematics, the sciences, the arts and athletics.
Our students have access to the latest educational technology by having their lessons scheduled in state-of-the-art computer classes. Scientific experiments are regularly conducted through the use of microscopes and other tools geared toward scientific discovery and research. All classes are equipped with TV’s and DVD players as well as other materials produced by the school for didactic purposes.
Come visit us to get a taste of the Big Apple Academy where each child is given the inspiration to learn and succeed!
