Mission:  The Bushwick School for Social Justice (BSSJ) will create a community of young leaders demanding the best from themselves today and working together for a more just tomorrow. BSSJ is committed to providing a rigorous college curriculum that empowers students to succeed in future academic and professional endeavors and to be informed and active citizens. Furthermore, we are committed to preparing students to take an informed and active role in the social, cultural, and political life of their communities, their state, their country, and their world. Through a curriculum that is grounded in the humanities and sciences, and that is informed by a commitment to social justice, students are provided with a comprehensive academic education and opportunities to see the relevance of that education to their own lives as citizens in a democracy. We are committed to ensuring that every student is held to the highest standards, has constant and consistent opportunities for intellectual engagement, and becomes knowledgeable about and confident in facing the pressing issues of the day.
