The Bay Ridge Prep Tigers are comprised of students with varying degrees of athletic skill who each enable one another to win with grace, turn obstacles into positive learning experiences and be proud, socially-responsible members of the community. With guidance from talented coaches, student-athletes at Bay Ridge Prep develop a sense of self-awareness and become role models for their peers inside the classroom, on the courts and fields and in activities such as community service projects and arts performances.

Our cozy school building on the corner of 74th Street is gradually coming alive once more as students return for in-person activities. Seeing familiar faces throughout the week has been a bright spot in this ever-changing world, even with the smiles and expressions of excitement hidden behind masks.

Although the start of school has been successful,  our community is working hard to not relax its standards in preventing the transmission of the virus.  We are evaluating school operations to best meet the community's needs during these evolving circumstances that we live in and, when necessary, are making adjustments.

Our high school students are currently at Bay Ridge Prep in person 1 time per week. The other 4 days they are engaged in the successful Distance Learning Program that we rolled out in March. 

Our distance learning program provides a comprehensive and age-appropriately designed schedule, using zoom classes and activities.  We believe students need to be with their peers, even if it is in a virtual environment.  We also believe during this time that students should be interacting with their teachers on a regular basis.  In this new educational setting, feedback, understanding, and compassion have never been more crucial to student well-being.  In addition to a mixture of synchronous and asynchronous classes, teachers are available for office hours each day to further support students in their classes.
