91¹ú²ú×ÔÅÄ

This post is part of a series inspired by , a SundanceTV docu-series that follows 15 New York City teenagers who left high school and are now trying to get back on track to graduate.

We’re pleased to offer 91¹ú²ú×ÔÅÄ's Merit Scholarship, a program offering each recipient 50 percent tuition remission for each year that he or she remains a student in good standing with a minimum 3.0 GPA.

Having sent three children through New York City independent schools, I believed I was well acquainted with what they had to offer – that is, until I arrived at 91¹ú²ú×ÔÅÄ as an English teacher, after 25 years as an editor.
