Company Profile

Company Description:

Williamsburg Charter High School (WCHS) is a community charter high school serving almost 1000 students grades 9 through 12 in the greater Brooklyn community.

WCHS opened in 2004 and is one of the oldest operating charter high schools in New York City. Williamsburg Charter selects students through a lottery system. There is no tuition and there is no test to apply. 

WCHS unites youth, families, staff, teachers and the community at large in providing young people with the tools necessary to make sense of the world, preparing them in their journey to become citizens of the local and global community. Young people will accomplish this through participation in a liberal arts education that includes language, literature, writing, science, history, mathematics, the visual and performing arts, technology and explorations in disciplines designed to teach justice, independent thinking, respect and compassion for themselves and others as well as the skills of critical thinking, communication, and research.
