Why MS 53

Each middle school student is different and comes to school with different interests, ambitions, hopes, and dreams. 

If you’re looking for a learning environment that offers individualized support for each student – this is IT! Each learner is recognized, valued, and celebrated at MS 53. Students set short and long-term goals, check on progress, and grow – academically, socially and emotionally.

All children can succeed here – and it's tuition-free!

Academic Excellence

Our scholars are motivated to reach higher and dream bigger through a program that builds a solid, tech-integrated academic foundation and a global mindset. A strong, early core in reading and math predicts future academic success. With a low teacher-student ratio, students thrive. Our highly-qualified, dedicated staff builds healthy, lasting, and meaningful relationships with students to ensure their well-being. Students don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.

Children deserve experiences that develop the whole child. MS 53 opens eyes, ears, and minds to the wonders of the world as we develop well-rounded learners who will be ready for any future challenge through experiencing a wide variety of sports, clubs, and enrichment activities.
