The academic program for THE URBAN ASSEMBLY SCHOOL FOR CAREERS IN SPORTS will accommodate the intellectual, social emotional, and physical needs of high school students. Our vision is to provide the students with a dynamic learning environment where respect is mutual, ideas are shared, and learning is not limited to the classroom. The school will be a safe and nurturing environment where learning will take place in the classroom, the community and through internship opportunities.

Through sports and sports-related fields, such as marketing, management, law, medicine, journalism and broadcasting, ACS will provide our students with experimental learning opportunities.

Professionals in the fields mentioned above have collaborated with the staff of ACS to create the school's curriculum. Sports agents, attorneys, doctors, writers, broadcasters and the athletes will be teachers and mentors to the students.

Our concept of a successful school is one built collaboratively and is owned by its staff, students, parents, community members, and by our partner community-based organizations. We intend to prepare students for higher education, as well as to create professional opportunities for each one of our graduates.
