Forte Preparatory Academy is a proposed 5th-8th grade college preparatory, tuition-free public charter school for Queens, New York, primarily serving students from Jackson Heights, East Elmhurst, and North Corona.
Our Mission: Through rigorous academics, quality instruction, and a positive culture of individual and collective responsibility, Forte Preparatory Academy Charter School equips all students in grades 5 through 8 to excel in college preparatory high schools and use their leadership and voice to change the world.
I am signing this petition to affirm that I have read Forte Prep’s mission, I believe in this mission, and I would like to see Forte Preparatory Academy open as a free, public charter school in the fall of 2017.
Thank you for your support. This is just the beginning.

I am a founding board member and fully support this effort. Forte Preparatory Academy will add value to the Queens community by providing top notch education for fifth through eighth grade students. - Kyle
As a long time Queens resident and former New York City public school student, I would have loved having an educational option like Forte Preparatory Academy in my community.
Graham Browne is an inspiring, visionary leader who is deeply dedicated to the cause of education. As a public school teacher, I wholeheartedly support him in this venture.
I believe that this school's mission of developing a positive culture of individual and collective responsibility is one of the most important lessons that we can share with young people.
I would love a choice in my borough with the same quality in academics as in Manhattan Prep schools without sending my children to another borough.
Queens needs great schools!
Way to go!!!
