“Doing labs on Howard's campus made me realize I actually want to be an engineer. The teachers know me — they push me and they have my back.”
Amara T. 8th Grade Robotics · Track · Student Council
“I used to think math was just worksheets. Here we use data to solve real problems. Now it's my favorite class.”
Marcus D. 7th Grade Coding · Basketball · Chess Club
From Our Families

Parents trust us with what matters most.

What sold me was the 18:1 ratio. My son is known here. Teachers call me before small things become big things, and being on Howard's campus every day has changed how he sees his future.
Mrs. Johnson Parent of a 7th grader
The Saturday school and extended day mean our daughter is safe, supported, and challenged. The restorative justice approach helps her solve conflicts instead of just being punished.
Sr. y Sra. Reyes Parents of a 6th grader
I was nervous about middle school. The teachers here treat the whole child — academics, but also how my daughter feels every day. She walks in confident now.
Mr. Bekele Parent of an 8th grader
