East Williamsburg Scholars Academy

East Williamsburg Scholars Academy in Brooklyn serves grades 9-12, emphasizing a nurturing and supportive environment for students' academic, social, and emotional development. The school is known for its dedicated and supportive teachers who often provide extra help, contributing to overwhelmingly positive parent satisfaction. A key strength is its Early College Now immersion program, offering students opportunities to earn college credits through partnerships with institutions like Long Island University, City Tech, and John Jay College. The school also provides seven Advanced Placement courses and features a renovated courtroom for mock trials. Academically, the school demonstrates strong Regents pass rates in English, US History, Global History, and Languages Other Than English. Its four-year graduation rate is 85%, which is at the citywide 25th percentile, with particularly strong graduation rates for English Language Learners and students with disabilities. However, the college enrollment rate of 45.5% is below the citywide 25th percentile, and Regents pass rates in Geometry, Algebra I, Living Environment, and Earth/Space Sciences are areas of concern. The school shares the Grand Street Campus, collaborating on an extensive music program.
