    About Our School

    Vertex Partnership Academies seeks to develop virtuous high school graduates who have acquired the habits, knowledge and sense of personal agency necessary to lead self-determined, purposeful lives of American and global citizenship. Our vision is to develop internationally-minded, tenacious learners guided by the four cardinal virtues of Courage, Justice, Temperance, and Wisdom. The founding campus opened in the Bronx in 2022 with only 9 th graders and is serving the 9th -10th graders in the school year. Vertex will empower each student scholar to choose either: (1) the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program that prepares them to enroll and thrive in premier colleges and universities in the country or abroad; or (2) the International Baccalaureate Careers Program that prepares them to graduate with a professional credential and directly enter the labor market with skills in a variety of high-demand areas. Vertex uses the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program in grades 9 and 10 to prepare students for the Diploma and Career Programs in the 11th and 12th grade.

    Vertex Partnership Academies is a Candidate School* for the Middle Years Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education that Vertex Partnership Academies believes is important for our students.
