Description: Tracking indicates that over 90 percent of Storefront students graduate from high school, in stark contrast to the community rate of 33%.

Over the last several years students have attended private schools that include Buxton School, Brooklyn Friends, Miss Hall’s and Northfield Mount Herman in Massachusetts, the Masters School, the Marvelwood School in Connecticut and Holderness in New Hampshire. Parochial schools include Mt. St. Michael’s, Xavier, Notre Dame and LaSalle in New York City.
