Our learning spaces reflect the beauty of our scholars. Learning spaces are not limited to the classroom - rather, everywhere a child turns should be an opportunity to excite, motivate, and inspire. Our stairwells are no exception. The phenomenal work of artist TREW Colors Nyc has elevated our school buildings to another level. Powerful words of aspiration and motivational quotes fill dull spaces that empower our youth. That's what's !
We are getting our scholars ready for the innovation economy through rigorous academic coursework and unique college programing that sets them up for success.

At Pharos, our classrooms are built on a foundation that encourages inquiry and curiosity at the highest level. We encourage scholars to solve and contribute to challenging and interesting problems. We understand that learning should be messy and challenging. We work to push our scholar’s imaginations in order to get them to ask key questions that ignite the flame for learning and growth.
Join us as we highlight our podcast studio. Our podcast studio allows scholars to become content creators and curators using new media. Our Podcast and New Media Club trains scholars on both sides (production and performance) of the equipment and prepares scholars to create and share content in the 21st century.
A school building is more than what is taught in the classroom. It's a safe environment that allows scholars to explore their curiosities and thrive not only academically, but in life. Hear from Class of 2019 alumnus Ryan Dujon Thomas as he shares how he remains connected and supported at Pharos.
We are so proud of everything Ryan has accomplished and will always be in his corner cheering him on!
