AECI Charter High School

New York City Charter High School for Architecture, Engineering and Construction Industries (AECI) will enroll 400 students in 9th-12th grades in the fall of 2016. AECI's mission is to create an integrated, rigorous academic and career preparatory learning environment that provides students with a foundation of the necessary skills, knowledge and practical experience to pursue a path leading to college and/or a career in the construction industry. Our philosophy is that a college preparatory school that has high expectations for all students and an academically rigorous, small learning environment will produce students who attain high levels of achievement regardless of ethnicity, gender, race, creed, national origin, religion or ancestry. AECI's educational program is designed to fully integrate core academic subjects, project-based classroom learning, and career-related field experiences. Architecture, engineering, and construction industry themes will be embedded across the core curriculum in math, science, history, and English language arts/communication.
