Vertex Partnership Academies

Phones have become such an integral part of everyday life that we sometimes forget to stop and think about the changes that are happening within a learning environment. We are proud to host a panel exploring the future of technology and its role in education, the challenges and benefits that come along from a more connected world. Open to all, both in person and online. Wednesday March 6th, 5 pm 1143 Taylor Ave Bronx, NY 10472 RSVP HERE  https://lnkd.in/e26-FE7E

Throughout the fall, Vertex students sold socks as part of a fundraiser to help raise money for leg amputees in collaboration with MEND, Legs4Africa, and the OTC. We found out just this week that our students raised enough money to help fund two prosthetic legs! You can read the stories of the individuals we helped here. Giving back to the wider global community is a huge part of what it means to be a Vertex Scholar. To see such a direct impact is incredibly inspiring.

We're so proud of all of our students and staff for challenging themselves beyond just the required coursework. Check out this amazing video of just one of the many opportunities our students embark upon!

After weeks of planning and coordinating, on Friday the members of the Student Council finally got to see all their hard work culminate in the fun, festive, and fancy Winter Formal! Council members were fully in charge of sending out information, collecting money from ticket sales, setting up the decorations, coordinating refreshments, planning the music playlist, and everything else that comes along with event planning. A great learning experience and awesome way to finish out 2023!
