HBCU Early College Prep

Nothing like seeing our rising freshman and sophomore scholars and families come together for an evening filled with skating, laughter, music, and community! 🛼✨

This weekend was pure fun and a reminder of the power of Ubuntu: “I am because we are.” Every lap around the rink, every smile, and every moment shared helped support opportunities for our scholars and strengthen the village behind them. 💙❤️

Thank you to everyone who rolled with us, donated, and showed love to the HBCU Early College Prep community. And a Big Ups to our Parent Association that have already raised so much money for our scholars this year. Together, we continue to invest in the dreams, brilliance, and future of our scholars.

What started as a dream is now becoming a movement.

Rooted in the legacy, academic excellence, culture of HBCUs, our school is only screened fully funded Early College high school in Southeast Queens, designed to ensure scholars experience rigor, belonging, mentorship, leadership, and cultural pride all at once in preparation for a free Associates Degree from an HBCU Delaware State University. From our House System to Success Coaches to real-world learning experiences, we are redefining what’s possible for Black and Brown youth in New York City.

This is bigger than a school.
This is a promise.
This is Ubuntu.
This is “Be the Dream.”

What started as a dream is now becoming a movement. 💫

Service. Leadership. Brotherhood. 💙

Our My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) scholars are closing out the school year by giving back to the community through volunteer service at a local food pantry in Rosedale. We are proud of these young men for continuing to lead with purpose, compassion, and responsibility both inside and outside the classroom.

Our sincerest thanks to our guest!

Today, we celebrate every kind of mother and every journey of motherhood. 💐

To the angel moms, caregiver moms, stay-at-home moms, working moms, single moms, adoptive moms, bonus moms, moms-to-be, and the women still praying and hoping to become mothers, we see you, honor you, and celebrate your love, strength, sacrifice, and resilience.

Motherhood does not look the same for everyone, but every story deserves love and recognition. Happy Mother’s Day to all moms, everywhere. 💕👑

Today, we celebrate Kemari, Josh and Grayson, our HBCU Early College Prep young men who were accepted into the Young Doctors Project!

This opportunity represents more than medicine; it represents exposure, mentorship, representation, and the power of believing in who you are becoming.

We are proud to see our scholars stepping boldly into spaces where they belong: hospitals, research labs, medical schools, and beyond. The future doctors, surgeons, researchers, and healthcare leaders are already in the room.

One day, those white coats will carry your names.

The Hive is proud of you. Keep reclaiming your story.
